Sarah Coe - Individual Counselling

Hello and a warm welcome, I'm Sarah. Free Initial Consultation offered. Perhaps you are facing something specific, or perhaps it feels harder to name?

As a psychodynamically trained counsellor, i offer a safe, supporting, non-judgemental and confidential space for you in my peaceful cabin to speak and be heard. I am an experienced and compassionate counsellor offering one-to-one counselling for adults in a calm, confidential setting—either in person, from my peaceful garden cabin in Bardwell (just 9 miles northeast of Bury St Edmunds), or remotely via Microsoft Teams or telephone. Sometimes we all find ourselves struggling through life, facing emotions & feelings, situations & behaviours that we think we have to manage alone. At these times in our lives we just need a bit of space & peace to talk, be heard and work out exactly where we are in our lives & where we want to be. I know picking up the phone or emailing can be daunting and perhaps difficult and that you may have been thinking about it for some time and only now feel able to take that step. I will always answer my phone if I am able to and respond to emails as quickly as possible. Both my phones and email are confidential and messages can be left in confidence - please leave your message including your name and details of the best way to contact you. My ethos is one of true compassion which is rooted in my deep respect for every person making this decision to reach out for support. I will not be passing judgement nor will I tell you what to do -I am here to guide and support you to reach the answers and decisions you need for yourself but that may feel too painful, confusing or difficult to work out on your own right now. These are just some examples of areas I can offer support with:

Anxiety, panic attacks, stress or persistent worry
Low self-esteem or confidence
Depression or general emotional overwhelm
ADHD-related challenges
Grief, loss, bereavement
Trauma, abuse (emotional, physical, sexual)
Relationship and family struggles
Coercive control, co-dependency
Identity, purpose, belonging
Work-related concerns: employment, redundancy or retirement
Social anxiety, isolation or feeling disconnected
Compulsive thoughts and behaviours

I will work with you to help you make sense of those difficult feelings, explore those changes which you feel would benefit you, helping you to fulfil your potential. Free Initial Consultation session - Taking that first step into counselling can sometimes feel daunting, so I offer a free initial consultation to help ease that process. It’s simply a chance for us to meet, talk through what’s brought you here, and gently explore whether counselling may be helpful for you. I will also explain how I work and explain in more detail what I can offer you and how we could work together. There’s no pressure to continue beyond this session. Should you feel comfortable moving forward, the consultation also reserves your regular appointment day and time. No referral is needed to contact me. You may be feeling very alone with your thoughts and feelings and unsure of how to move through them - having someone by your side in these times can bring about change quicker than struggling alone.

Healing doesn’t always look like peace and calm.

Sometimes it feels messy, uncomfortable, and even harder than before.

But that doesn’t mean you’re stuck, it means you’re growing. 🌱

Here are signs you’re healing, even if it doesn’t feel like it in the moment.

🌱 you stop chasing people who don’t value you.

🌱 you choose peace over chaos, even if peace feels uncomfortable.

🌱 you express your needs more openly.

🌱 you stop justifying poor treatment.

🌱 you care less about being liked and more about being well.

🌱 you rest without guilt.

🌱 you feel grief or anger more deeply because you’re no longer numbing it.

An interesting read...

I was standing in line at a neighborhood café when a dad ahead of me tried to hand his teenage daughter a muffin. She shook her head and buried her attention back into her phone. He paused, sighed, then scrolled through his own notifications. No anger. Just two people inches apart yet miles away. M...

Having been in both chairs in counselling this speaks so much to me x

It’s a marathon not a sprint.
Be patient with yourself and your therapist 💙

ADHD thought processing is like having a brain that’s tuned to a dozen radio stations at once—creative, fast-moving, and often nonlinear.

🧠 Core Features of ADHD Thought Patterns
Rapid idea generation: Thoughts can leap from one topic to another, making connections others might miss.

Hyperfocus: When deeply interested, someone with ADHD may concentrate intensely for hours, tuning out everything else.

Distractibility: External stimuli or internal thoughts can easily pull attention away, even mid-task.

Executive function challenges: Planning, prioritizing, and organizing thoughts can be difficult due to differences in brain regulation.

Emotional intensity: Thoughts are often tied to strong emotions, which can amplify reactions or lead to rumination.

🔄 Common Experiences
“Browser with too many tabs”: Many describe their minds as constantly juggling multiple ideas, tasks, or worries.

Overthinking: ADHD can lead to analysing situations from every angle, sometimes resulting in analysis paralysis.

Intrusive thoughts: Unwanted or repetitive thoughts may pop up, especially when trying to focus or relax.

Difficulty initiating tasks: Even when someone knows what to do, getting started can feel like climbing a mountain.

🌟 Strengths Hidden in the Chaos
Creative problem-solving: The ability to think divergently can lead to innovative solutions.

Intuitive leaps: ADHD minds often jump ahead to conclusions or ideas that others reach more slowly.

Passion-driven productivity: When engaged, individuals with ADHD can produce high-quality work quickly and intensely.

Our Story

I am a MBACP qualified and approved Psychodynamic Counsellor offering Individual Counselling for Adults. What is Psychodynamic Counselling? Psychodynamic Counselling looks not only at problems in the present but, crucially, at the roots of these problems in the past. Psychodynamic practice aims to help you make sense of your existing situation and of the feelings and thoughts and associated memories that are brought about by this situation. In psychodynamic counselling, feelings, thoughts, images and even dreams can be explored and reflected on. This can help to gain deeper understanding of your emotional patterns of how you relate to yourself and to others. Some patterns may provide positive outcomes whilst others may repeat themselves in later life in a damaging way. Coming to understand this can empower & enable change to take place. How I work I am a caring, empathetic counsellor who is committed to your personal growth and wellbeing. I will not be passing judgement & I will not be shocked as to what you may say. I work in a nondirective way which means I will not force you to confront issues and I will not give you advice. “Together we can explore whatever you wish to talk about confidentially” You will take sessions at your own pace, talk about what you want to talk about and decide whether you wish to further explore issues. I will listen and observe the important therapeutic relationship that develops in our working alliance and use this to reflect together. With insight brings the potential for change. What I can offer you I am a sole practitioner and offer both short term and longer term Individual counselling for adults from ‘The Cabin’ in the garden of my home. I can offer you face to face confidential counselling sessions in a safe, private, counselling room and a friendly, professional approach. No referral is needed to contact me. Once you have contacted me an initial 50 minute consultation session will be offered. No fee is charged for this consultation session & there is no obligation to enter into a counselling contract after this session. I will send you a letter confirming our appointment date and time, map & directions and an outline of what you can expect from the appointment. Please email or call me to arrange an initial consultation.
