About Sara

Sara Dallat helps people with LGBT matters, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, parenting strains and self-esteem difficulties. She uses direct conversation and practical reflection to help people clarify what they want and make manageable changes. Sara is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience.

Sara focuses on building straightforward, respectful conversations. She listens to the details people bring and looks at how past experiences affect present relationships and feelings. Discussions cover patterns in attachment, body image concerns and responses to traumatic events as they come up in everyday life.

When working on intimacy issues she helps people identify boundaries, expectations and communication habits that affect close relationships. For parenting matters the work centres on coping strategies, setting realistic goals and reducing repeated conflict cycles. Sessions that touch on pregnancy, childbirth or post-traumatic stress aim to make those experiences easier to talk about and understand.

Sara also supports exploration of sexuality and women's issues, using calm, plain language and step-by-step conversations. She explains options clearly and helps people choose small, practical steps between sessions. Her practice emphasises respect and sensitivity in every session.

People usually start by outlining their key concerns and recent history. From there Sara and the person agree on short-term aims and review progress regularly to make sure the work remains relevant and helpful.

How evidence-based approaches work in online counselling

Many of the techniques Sara uses come from evidence-based therapeutic practice. One common approach looks at past relationships and attachment patterns to explain current difficulties in intimacy and trust; this helps people see how early experiences shape reactions now. Another approach focuses on trauma-informed methods that help people name and manage responses to distressing events in small, practical steps that reduce overwhelm and improve daily coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences, try different ways of working and agree what helps most. This is a collaborative process so plans are adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and saving travel time. Some people prefer a shorter check-in by phone when they need a brief update, while others use video for longer, more in-depth sessions; please confirm which formats are available with Sara before booking. Online work can make it easier to schedule around childcare, work breaks or medical appointments without promising a specific format.
