About Sabrina
Sabrina Norton is a counsellor who uses clear, practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety and the after-effects of trauma. She brings seven years of professional experience and works with people on issues such as low self-esteem, grief, sleep problems and the emotional fallout of relationship difficulties. She also supports people dealing with parenting challenges and career transitions.
Her approach is personalised. Conversations are tailored to each person's needs and goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on concrete steps you can try between meetings, not just talking about problems. Sabrina explains techniques in simple language and helps you practise them in everyday life. Trauma-focused work is part of her practice when past abuse, assault or domestic violence affects daily life.
She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns and to the ways those memories can shape current relationships. Wherever needed, she uses tools from cognitive behavioural work to shift unhelpful thinking and build coping skills. Clients can expect a calm, respectful presence and practical guidance.
Sabrina highlights small, manageable changes that add up over time. She encourages people to move at their own pace while aiming for clearer thinking and steadier routines. If you are feeling overwhelmed by life change, bereavement, or a painful separation, Sabrina helps map a way forward.
The focus is on skills you can use day to day and on restoring a sense of steadier control.

Practical approaches for online therapy and trauma work
Two of the approaches Sabrina most often uses are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches simple techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and the everyday stresses of parenting and work.Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on how past abuse or frightening events continue to affect feelings and relationships now. It helps people recognise triggers, process distressing memories in small steps and build safer routines. This approach is used when past harm is causing ongoing problems such as post-traumatic stress or effects from domestic violence and sexual assault.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Sabrina will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. Plans are adjusted as you go, so the work stays practical and relevant to your life.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can suit quick check-ins or shorter work between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments.
