About Saralea
Saralea Stewart is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with ten years of clinical experience. She works with adults and young adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, parenting strains and issues linked to identity and sexuality. She also offers help around addiction, grief, trauma and a broad range of interpersonal problems.
Her training includes a first class BA (Hons) in Person Centred Counselling from the University of East Anglia and the University of Essex, and a BTEC Diploma in counselling skills. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) and continues to take further training to refine her work.
Saralea uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on the client’s experience and personal goals. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to help identify practical steps and small, achievable adjustments.
In practice she aims to help people name what is troubling them and take realistic next steps. Sessions often include plain discussion, practical skills and reflective exercises. She has substantial experience supporting people affected by addiction services, college and student counselling, and employee assistance programmes.
People seeking help for family-related strain, blended family challenges, parenting stress or intimacy concerns will find her familiar with these topics. International clients may be accepted and sessions are conducted in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking route.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used online and what they do
Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the centre of conversation. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the person clarify what they want to change or understand. This approach is useful for emotional concerns such as anxiety, low mood and self esteem issues.Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change. It uses guided conversation to strengthen motivation and plan next steps, so it can help with addictions, ambivalence about relationship changes, or starting a new routine.
Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that move things forward. Sessions often identify one or two actions to try between meetings and review what worked, which suits people wanting clear, time-limited goals.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The counsellor will help decide on the methods to try based on the client’s goals, preferences and what comes up in early sessions. Clients are involved in shaping how therapy proceeds rather than being given a fixed programme.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life and reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins during a busy day. Ask about session length and scheduling when you arrange the first appointment to make sure it fits your routine.
