More from Sara

My name is Sara O’Donnell and I am a fully qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I work with both couples and individuals, and I’m an accredited member of the National Counselling Society (NCS) as well as a registered member of the BACP.

I work within the NCS Code of Ethics and the BACP Ethical Framework, and I also undertake regular professional development and supervision to ensure my practice remains of the highest standard.

In my experience, many couples try hard to resolve issues on their own before seeking therapy. They often find themselves stuck in the same arguments and feel upset, hurt, or overwhelmed by the patterns they cannot break. I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where both partners can feel supported, understood, and encouraged to find new ways of relating.
