About Sabrina

Sabrina Faulkner is a counsellor who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and grief. She also supports people dealing with sleep problems, parenting strain, ADHD, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. Sabrina lists LGBT and trauma and abuse among her areas of focus and works with a wide range of emotional and life challenges.

Sabrina trained in psychology and holds a diploma in hypnotherapy, and she uses those backgrounds to shape practical sessions. She follows a humanistic, client-centred style that aims to listen first and tailor conversations to each person. Cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness techniques are brought in when they match a client's needs.

Sessions are presented as collaborative conversations. Sabrina aims to hold space, name unhelpful patterns and try small, doable steps to change things. Hypnotherapy may be offered alongside talk-based work where appropriate and agreed.

She practises in the United Kingdom and combines work in a private practice with volunteer roles. Sabrina has six years' experience and notes additional interests including existential themes and narrative ways of working.

Sabrina is listed with NCPS, which is given here as her credential. In recent time she has also published an Amazon bestselling book and works as a spiritual counsellor alongside her clinical work.

How different approaches can work online

Sabrina commonly blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and tailoring sessions to each person's experience; it suits people who need time to feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and is helpful for anxiety, stress and sleep patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and support calmer thinking.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Sabrina works collaboratively to test what helps most and adjusts methods based on a client's goals and comfort. The first few sessions are often used to agree priorities and choose practical steps that fit day-to-day life.

The practical benefits of online work should be confirmed before booking since session formats are not specified in the biography. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the current session options when you complete the matching questionnaire so you know how appointments will be arranged.
