Sarah Shoraka

I believe that everyone has the ability to heal and grow. Sometimes we might get stuck and need support to move forward or to be more true to ourselves.

I offer a safe, confidential space and a warm, empathetic and non-judgemental therapeutic relationship where you can bring whatever feelings, thoughts or concerns you are experiencing. This can bring greater self awareness and open up new choices and possibilities for you.

I work with a relational Gestalt approach to psychotherapy. This means that I work with the the whole person such as the thoughts, feelings, body sensations, intuition, beliefs and behaviour that may emerge when we are working together. I may invite you to experiment with doing something different or to use creative approaches, if you are open to it. I also have a contextual perspective on what might be affecting you. I work with people from all types of backgrounds, ages, LGBTQI+, ethnicities, genders and heritages respecting and affirming what is unique about you.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor and a trainee psychotherapist (UK Council for Psychotherapy trainee member). I run a private practice in Millbrook on the Rame Peninsula in East Cornwall. I offer face-to-face sessions in a quiet and confidential location and also sessions online by video call. 

I do charge for the first session. I ask quite a lot of questions about you and your situation to understand the background to what you are bringing to therapy or counselling. 

You are welcome to contact me free of charge and in confidence to talk things through or ask questions before booking a session.
