Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Sarah directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

How Narrative and Practical Approaches Work Online
Sarah combines Narrative Therapy with client-centered listening and cognitive-behavioral tools. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and separate problems from identity, which can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and coping after loss. Client-centered work focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person’s lead to identify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sarah will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, and then suggest ways of working that match those needs. Together they try methods and adjust them based on what feels helpful and realistic.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls let people read facial cues and share a focused conversation. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or for people who prefer typing to speaking. These options aim to increase flexibility and make regular, consistent work on goals more doable.
