Sabina Petrine , BACP

Sabina Petrine is a licensed counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience and BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She brings a practical, empathetic approach to sessions and aims to help people navigate periods of emotional difficulty and change.

Her practice focuses on supporting those coping with stress, anxiety, LGBT-related concerns, and depression. She works with each person to establish an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and understood. This approach supports honest reflection and steady progress toward the goals a client wants to achieve.

Sabina emphasizes empowerment and partnership in therapy. She recognizes that seeking change takes courage and treats each step toward a more fulfilling life as a meaningful part of the process. Her role is to support and encourage clients as they build resilience, develop clarity, and pursue lasting personal growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Sabina draws on client-centered therapy to place the client's experience at the heart of the work. This approach prioritizes empathy and active listening so that each person feels heard and supported while exploring their concerns and goals. It is often helpful for issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship questions, and challenges with self-esteem.

She also integrates trauma-focused therapy to address the effects of past or recent traumatic experiences. This approach involves gentle, paced exploration of trauma-related symptoms and coping strategies aimed at reducing their impact on daily life, which can be important for those dealing with abuse, sexual assault, or long-term trauma responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sabina works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The relationship between therapist and client guides these decisions in an open and respectful way.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility and accessibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that fits their comfort and life demands. Licensed professionals can deliver meaningful, focused support through these formats while helping clients build the skills and insight they seek.
