About Sarah
Dr. Sarah Enderby helps people struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and questions about sexual orientation and identity. She also supports those facing trauma, grief, parenting strain, career transitions, and compassion fatigue.
Dr Enderby works with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. She came to counselling after experiencing her own life crisis and found therapy transformative. That experience led her to retrain as a therapist after a long corporate career.
Background and approach
Her background includes an MA, a Doctorate, and a Diploma in Psychodynamic Therapy, and she holds BACP registration. Sarah draws on a few different approaches to suit each person’s needs. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
Client-Centred work helps people feel heard and respected while they make sense of their feelings. She also uses elements of Psychodynamic and Internal Family Systems thinking when it fits the issue. In sessions she aims to build an open, non-judgemental space where people can say what is on their mind.
Conversations are practical and down-to-earth. She talks through patterns, helps people recognise choices, and supports them to try different ways of relating and deciding. Her previous career in research brings a curious, questioning stance to therapy.
She encourages gentle curiosity about why behaviours and feelings repeat, and helps people develop clearer ways of relating to themselves and others.

How her approaches work in online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present-day patterns. It can help people who find themselves repeating the same relationship cycles or struggling with closeness and trust. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding without judgement. This approach helps people explore identity, self-worth, and difficult decisions at their own pace. Psychodynamic ideas help uncover recurring themes that come from past experiences and childhood influences, which can be useful for longstanding anxiety, shame, or relationship difficulties.Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will work with the person to identify goals, try different ways of working, and adjust the approach as therapy continues. The emphasis is on collaboration and finding what feels most helpful for the individual's needs and preferences.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, whether by reducing travel time or allowing check-ins between commitments. It also allows for different styles of session work, such as reflective conversations, focused problem-solving, or relationship skills practice, depending on what suits the client. Confirm the current session options before booking to be sure they match your needs.
