About Sherrine
Sherrine Barrowes is a counsellor who uses client-centred and evidence-informed methods to help people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strain. She draws on ten years of experience in the United Kingdom and aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable. Sherrine emphasises the client as expert in their own life and focuses on building on existing strengths.
Her work often addresses family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and the practical problems that follow separation or infidelity. She also helps people navigate issues around attachment, abandonment and fatherhood. Sessions tend to focus on what is happening now and on small changes that can make day-to-day life easier.
Sherrine draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tackle unhelpful thoughts and to clarify values. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches to strengthen emotional connection and to validate the person’s experience. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills may be used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She asks questions, listens closely and helps people try new ways of responding to problems. Practical tools and short exercises are commonly offered between sessions to reinforce progress.
Sherrine works with people who want to improve their relationships, manage mood or recover from past harms. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take small actions that match those values. It can help with anxiety, depression and life changes by shifting focus from avoiding difficult thoughts to living a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical techniques to reduce unhelpful thinking and increase coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people build safer ways of relating and feeling close.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. This is a collaborative process where you can explore which techniques feel most helpful and adjust the plan as you go.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as options are not specified here. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. Online work can also make it simpler to use written exercises, screen-sharing or quick tools between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals adapt their style to make remote sessions practical and focused on real-life change.
