Sarah Parker

I am Sarah – counsellor and psychotherapist, EMDR therapist, certified change coach, human being, and founder of Well of Being.

I will support you to move beyond your difficult experiences from the past, and your anxieties about the future. From a place grounded in the present moment, I will help you to reconnect to the wellbeing and resilience that is always within you. That wellbeing will be the key to you navigating life with greater confidence, self-belief, and peace of mind.

I have spent many years working in the NHS, most recently as a specialist psychological therapist in an eating disorder service in West Yorkshire. I have a special interest in working with people who experience a difficult relationship with food, weight and their body and share from a wealth of personal and professional experience.

I offer therapy and coaching via zoom or telephone, so distance never has to be a barrier.

Therapy  with me is tailored entirely to your individual needs and hopes. The frequency and length of sessions, and the duration of therapy is designed around what works best for you.

Whatever your struggle, as we work together, I will gently guide you back to your own wise guide to navigate life’s twists and turns.

Therapy is a bit like me holding up a mirror which reflects back the magic you have inside. When we are struggling, our minds often fix on negative, unhelpful beliefs and we stop connecting to our wise guide.

Coming to therapy can feel daunting. With this in mind, I aim to create a space which feels safe, welcoming, and open. We will begin by getting to know each other a little and exploring your challenges and the hopes you hold for your time in therapy.

Throughout therapy we will review regularly to make sure you continue to have your hopes met and to shine a light on the progress you are making.

As your relationship with your thoughts begins to change and you connect more deeply to your inner guide, you will naturally know when the time is right for you to adapt and adjust your sessions and to think about moving beyond therapy.

Ending therapy can also feel like a challenging process for some. The process of ending therapy will always be guided by your needs and will be an opportunity to share your hopes and aspirations for life beyond our work together. You are at the centre of everything we do.

This process can help any difficulty you might be experiencing, whether that be eating and weight difficulties, depression, anxiety, trauma related difficulties, confidence and self-esteem issues, and the stresses we experience through life.

Nothing is too great to move beyond. As we work together to guide to back to your wise inner guide and past the limitations of your habitual thoughts, you will start to see that the possibilities for joy, peace and contentment are always within you.

I offer a half hour discovery call on zoom, which is free of charge. During the call we can talk about what you hope to get and to achieve from therapy and think about how I can best support you in that.

The discovery call is also an opportunity for you to consider if I'm the best person for you too.
