Welcome to Valley Psychological Therapy. I'm Sarah Beaumont, a Psychological Therapist with over 25 years of experience with NHS mental health services. I now work solely in private practice, where I can offer space and time to help you grow and flourish.
I combine a compassionate approach with evidence-based interventions like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) to help adults with a range of psychological distress in Ramsbottom and surrounding areas. I also offer limited online appointments.
I offer Specialist, tailored, face-to-face, psychological therapy to help you understand anxiety, stress and trauma and reduce its impact on your life. I work with people who want to not just understand why they're struggling, but also how to move forward too. Anxiety can affect many areas of your life, from work and relationships to sleep, health and self-confidence. This can be a constant background worry, or sudden, frightening and overwhelming. I work with individuals from all walks of life, focusing on day-to-day stresses to more complex mental health challenges.
I specialise in in-person therapy, offering sessions in a comfortable, confidential clinic in Ramsbottom and the surrounding areas.
Many people find face-to-face work particularly helpful for anxiety, as it allows for a sense of safety, connection and focus.
Alongside individual therapy, I offer wellbeing groups, which are suited to groups such as: SEND parents, teachers or small staff groups looking to prevent or manage burnout. These sessions will be adapted to meet the needs of each organisation and will focus on practical understanding rather than quick fixes.
