About Sandra
Sandra Henderson is a counsellor who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain and grief. She has 16 years of professional experience and works with clients to untangle difficult feelings and practical problems. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, aiming to help people find ways forward that fit their lives.
Sandra believes people already have strengths they can draw on. In sessions she listens without judgement and helps clients notice patterns in thinking and behaviour. She offers clear, practical strategies alongside space to process loss and change.
Her work draws on a mix of approaches to suit different needs. Sandra uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current trust and closeness. She also uses client-centred methods to prioritise the person's experience, and cognitive behavioural techniques to address thinking and behaviour that feed distress.
Across sixteen years of practice she has supported people facing trauma, domestic violence, addiction and difficult family dynamics. She also helps with intimacy concerns, coping with ageing, and major life transitions. Sandra aims to tailor each session to the issue at hand rather than offering one fixed method.
Practical matters are kept straightforward. Sessions follow the priorities set together, and Sandra works at a pace the person is comfortable with. People who want to begin are invited to take a first step and see whether the working relationship feels right.
How Sandra’s approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at patterns of closeness and trust formed in early relationships and how they affect current bonds; this can help with intimacy issues and fears around abandonment. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s perspective, offering empathic listening and helping people make sense of their experience. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behaviours, offering practical steps to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sandra will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs and goals. Choices are revisited as therapy progresses so the plan can be adjusted together.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time or making it simpler to schedule a short check-in at lunchtime. It can also allow quieter, uninterrupted time for talking and make it easier to continue therapy when people move or travel. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor online sessions to focus on practical skill-building, processing difficult emotions, and creating coping plans that translate into everyday life.
