Sarah London
About me
I am a trainee Gestalt Psychotherapist (PG Dip) working towards UKCP accreditation.
As a qualified youth and community worker, I have spent the last ten years working with a diverse range of children, young people and adults. Working in partnerships with community projects, schools and public agencies on both a 1-1 and group work basis; I have addressed issues ranging from mental health and anxiety, to community inclusion and transitions into adulthood.
My background in the community has laid a solid ground for how I build trust and respect into my relationships as a therapist. Much of my work has been, and continues to be, about creating safe spaces where people can begin to voice and make sense of their experiences. I know and have witnessed the transformation that can take place when we feel truly seen and heard for who we are. I hold a non-judgemental and accepting way of being and value working at your own pace, in your own time.
I believe that coming back to the body in the ‘here and now’ can be a great support, and a way to begin to really meet each other, exactly where we are. Although I know in our busy lives this can be a real challenge; I also trust that with the right support, this is where true healing begins.
Areas of interests include: using creativity and the imagination as a way to access and heal trauma in the body.
