My name is Sarah Hawthorn and I am part of the LGBTQ+ community. I am a BACP Registered Therapist I have first hand experience of how helpful therapy can be when navigating who we are and how we feel. I have lived experience of some of the feelings and emotions that therapy can help support. I have experience in working with adults and young people who are navigating their world as it is and the emotions surrounding their identity. I have worked with people who are wanting to explore their feelings and the impact on their family and social settings.
Drawing from experience I know that looking for a therapist can be hard. I made the information available here as straightforward as I could. Once you contact me we set up a reduced rate initial session with no obligation to continue. This will be a chance for us to see what brings you to therapy, how it may support you and explore the possibility of working together. Starting therapy is an empowering step. I see one of my tasks as helping you to feel at ease.

I practice from a humanistic, existential theoretical frame with a the standpoint that

Hi, I’m Jade (she/her) I am therapeutically trained in humanistic approaches with an emphasis on existential philosophy and how we experience emotions through the body.
