Sarah Nield

My hours are (generally) as below:

Monday : Online / Penryn F2F

Tuesday : Online

Wednesday : Penryn F2F

Thursday : Online / Probus F2F

Hi, I'm Sarah.  When we work together, you are at the heart of our sessions. You are the only person to have lived your experiences and I will aim to help you explore and understand them, and yourself,  through gentle enquiry and sharing understanding in a safe, empathetic space.

I am a person-centred counsellor who incorporates polyvagal theory (an understanding of how our nervous systems work) into what we do together.

Whatever your reason for seeking counselling I will meet you with empathy and compassion, through our relationship I hope to help you find more sense of self and through this, find peace in your life.

I have lovely rooms in Penryn and Probus for my face-to-face work and I also work online either full time or as a hybrid approach.

Client sessions are weekly or fortnightly depending on requirements and availability, generally there's more flexibility with online sessions compared to face-to-face.

I have a concessionary place for counselling students' therapy hours, please enquire if this is available.  

I offer an introductory chat, which is free of charge, this is a short phone call where we can explore a little of what you're looking to get out of counselling and I can explain some of how I work and we can both decide if we're a good fit - if we feel we are then we can book the first session at the end of this call.

Hi, I'm Sarah, a polyvagal informed person-centred counsellor. 

When we work together, you are at the heart of our sessions. You are the only person to have lived your experiences and I will aim to help you explore and understand them, and yourself, through gentle enquiry and sharing understanding in a safe, empathetic space.

Polyvagal theory seeks to explain how our nervous system intertwines with everything we do, I think of it underpinning our approach to life and how we move through the world.  I frequently bring aspects of how our nervous system supports us into sessions where it's appropriate and helpful.

I work with clients of all ages, genders and backgrounds, past and present - together we work on whatever you bring, whatever is going on for you in day to day life or maybe as a bigger picture. Our work often goes in directions we don't expect and I believe whatever needs to come up, will do.  Sessions are 50 minutes and I'm guided by what you bring in any given session, I don't work to an agenda or towards an outcome unless you want to focus on something specific.

Whatever your reason for seeking counselling I will meet you with empathy and compassion, through our relationship I hope to help you find more sense of self and through this, find peace in your life.
