Sara Thompson

I have availability from Monday to Thursday during the daytime and early evening to suit most people's busy lives.   I work with young people (16 years upwards) and adults.

I can work both short-term (although a minimum of six sessions is recommended) or open-ended, taking as long as you need to explore unhealthy patterns or coping strategies that may have developed, leaving you feeling 'stuck'.

I work with clients face to face at my private therapy room in the discreet premises of Health at Hart in Hartley Wintney. Some clients may prefer the convenience of having sessions via Zoom and so I am continuing to offer this service,  giving the same level of confidentiality as face to face and successfully building an open, trusted and non-judgmental relationship.   You may to use a hybrid model of both to suit your needs. 

I have set up my private practice, Coach House Counselling, using private therapy rooms in Hartley Wintney & Eversley that offer a safe and confidential environment which is convenient to a wide area including covering Eversley, Yateley, Wokingham, Hook, and Reading.   I have experience of working with young people through my work at a University, as well as older adults with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship breakdowns, disordered eating, low self-esteem and many more.

I understand that once you have taken that leap and decided you would like change in your life, that it is difficult to choose one therapist over another.  Therefore, I always recommend that I meet with clients for an initial session to understand what brings you to counselling and what you would like to achieve.  This gives you the opportunity to set yourself some goals which lends some focus to therapy, yet also gives you the chance to go away and decide if you would like us to continue working together.
