About
At Flourish Psychological Services, we’re committed to providing high quality, evidence-based support for adults, organisations and fellow professionals. Our aim is to offer a calm, steady space where people feel genuinely supported and able to make meaningful progress. We offer therapy to adults both online and face to face, so you can access support in the way that feels most comfortable and manageable for you.
We also support the wider professional community through clinical supervision for mental health practitioners, as well as consultation for clinicians who are developing or growing their private practice.
At Flourish, we believe in nurturing growth at every level; whether that’s personal, organisational or professional, our aim is to create a supportive space where people can heal, grow and flourish.
Individual Therapy
Therapy at Flourish is about offering a safe, steady space to work through whatever you’re facing. Sarah draws on her training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) to understand what’s going on for you and to shape a plan that fits your needs and goals. We work with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, work‑related stress, post‑traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bereavement and loss.
A big part of whether therapy feels helpful is the relationship you have with your therapist. At Flourish, therapy is a collaborative process: we’ll work together to make sense of your situation and find a way forward that feels realistic and manageable. It’s important that you feel comfortable enough to be open and honest and to feel you can trust the way Sarah works. She has many years experience working with people from a wide range of backgrounds and with many different concerns, she aims to put you at ease while treating you with respect and sensitivity.
People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons. You might not feel able to talk to friends or family, perhaps worrying about being a burden or through a fear of being judged. For some, therapy is something they’ve put off for a long time, hoping difficult feelings would stay “boxed up” on their own. When they don’t, therapy can offer a space to gently open that box and work through what’s inside. Whatever your reason, we can talk together about whether therapy might be helpful for you.
Therapy can give you time to reflect on how past experiences have shaped how you see yourself, other people and the world around you. Sometimes the strategies that helped us cope in the past start to hold us back later. Therapy offers an opportunity to step back, review where you are, make changes, set goals and work towards recovery. Sessions are paced carefully, taking into account your needs and the issues you bring, so that the work feels as safe and manageable as possible.
Therapy isn’t usually a quick fix, especially when difficulties have been around for a long time. Change can take time, and some sessions may feel challenging, particularly when you’re looking at things you’ve pushed away for years. Part of the work will be to think together about how you’ll look after yourself during therapy, and what support and resources you can draw on as you go.
Corporate Services or Workplace Wellbeing
Mental health difficulties are one of the leading causes of employee absence, making proactive wellbeing support essential for any organisation that wants a healthy, resilient workforce. At Flourish Psychological Services Limited, Sarah brings a strong commitment to helping employers create environments where staff feel supported, valued and able to thrive.
Sarah works in partnership with Occupational Health departments, HR teams and managers to strengthen and maintain employee wellbeing through a range of tailored services. These include individual psychological therapy, mental health awareness training, support following critical incidents or workplace trauma and guidance around organisational culture and its impact on mental health.
The aim is simple: to help your organisation reduce absence, improve staff morale and create a workplace where people can perform at their best. By embedding wellbeing into everyday practice, employers can foster a culture that supports both their people and their business.
