About Sarah
Sarah Lacon helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strain, anger and career difficulties. She supports those coping with grief, addiction, ADHD, depression and mood issues, and people dealing with trauma or relationship problems. Sarah uses a calm, approachable manner to make it easier to talk about hard things.
Sarah is registered with NCPS, which is shown after her name. She draws on three years of professional experience. Sessions focus on what matters now - practical steps, clearer thinking and emotional support that fits each person.
Background and approach
Her style is warm and client-centred. That means sessions begin with the person’s priorities and move at a comfortable pace. She combines person-focused listening with clear tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness to help break unhelpful patterns.
Sarah also uses motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when these suit the issue. Motivational interviewing helps when someone wants to change habits or tackle addictions. Psychodynamic thinking can help uncover long-standing patterns that affect current life.
People can expect a supportive space to name problems and try small experiments between sessions. Sarah pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment concerns, adoption and fostering experiences, and the stresses of caregiving and chronic illness. She aims to help people build coping skills, restore self-esteem and find more workable routines.

Online support
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and change unhelpful habits.
Mindfulness therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily feelings without getting swept away by them. It can be useful for stress, anger and ongoing worry by teaching simple attention practices.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest a mix of methods that suit the person. This collaborative process helps shape what happens in sessions and between them.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video suits in-depth conversations and non-verbal feedback. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging can be used for quick check-ins, brief coaching or keeping momentum between meetings. These options make it easier to maintain continuity and try different formats as needs change.
