About Sarah

I have over 20 years experience as a therapist.

I am a BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist and a BACP Senior Accredited Therapist. I also an EMDR trained therapist.

I work using:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)

I chose the name "Symmetry" as it is from the Greek word symmetria, which means 'together'. This reflects the process of therapist and client working together to deal with the client’s issues and to find more fulfilment for the client.

A modern definition of symmetry is: "Beauty as a result of balance or harmonious arrangement." I believe that therapy offers the potential for a person to achieve a more harmonious and balanced way of living. 

I am an Aviva Registered Therapist and a BUPA Recognised Therapist.
