Sally Rhodes , BACP

Sally Rhodes found therapy life-changing and turned that transformation into a career supporting others. After experiencing her own therapeutic journey she trained as a life coach, qualified in clinical hypnotherapy, and later trained as a psychotherapist. She has worked in private practice for 10 years, helping women make lasting changes and move beyond repeating unhelpful patterns.

Sally uses an integrative approach, drawing on a range of psychotherapy and coaching methods so treatment can be tailored to each person. Her practice includes Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred work, Solution-Focused Therapy, Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). She also integrates life coaching techniques such as Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), holistic coaching and SMART goal setting to support practical change and personal growth.

Across her ten years of practice Sally has worked with a variety of mental health concerns, including generalized anxiety, panic attacks, stress, depression, low self-esteem, trauma and abuse, suicidal ideation and identity questions. She aims to help clients develop self-awareness, break repetitive cycles, and build coping strategies for managing difficult emotions and life situations. Sally holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting her professional standing in the United Kingdom.

She believes therapy is not only for crisis moments but can offer insight, skills and support for anyone ready to work toward change and improved wellbeing.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build psychological flexibility by learning to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them; it is often used for anxiety, stress and patterns that hold people back. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship experiences shape current emotional responses and connection patterns - it can be especially useful for relationship difficulties, attachment issues and intimacy-related concerns. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on providing an empathic, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship in which the client is supported to explore their experiences and find their own solutions, often helping with self-esteem, depression and building self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Sally works collaboratively with clients to identify which method or combination of methods fits their needs, goals and preferences. Together they explore options and adjust the work as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, via live chat or through text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or to maintain continuity when in-person meetings are difficult. For many people, remote sessions provide accessible ways to engage with licensed professionals and therapists while still receiving tailored therapeutic support.
