About Sherrine
Sherrine Barrowes is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 10 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and low mood. She explains therapy in straightforward terms and focuses on practical ways to respond to difficult feelings.
Sherrine starts by listening to each person’s story and identifying patterns that cause repeated pain. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of thinking. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and on Attachment-Based approaches to look at relationship patterns.
Sessions are conversational and structured. She helps clients break big problems into small steps, try simple behavioural experiments, and build skills for emotional regulation. She also works on practical communication strategies for relationship and family concerns, and on coping tools for triggers linked to trauma.
Her approach is collaborative. She helps people set clear short-term goals and reviews progress regularly. People who want direct, practical work on thinking habits and relationship patterns tend to find this style useful.
Sherrine works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. For anyone who wants to begin, she asks for a short questionnaire first to match needs and then a scheduled first session to set goals and plan the work ahead.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Sherrine commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting and testing thoughts that keep problems going, and on trying small behaviour changes to see what helps. ACT emphasises noticing what matters to the client and taking actions that align with those values, which can help when decisions and life direction feel confusing.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to map patterns in relationships and how they affect current difficulties. That approach looks at how early relationship experiences influence trust and closeness now, and it can help with communication and intimacy-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative decision made early in the work and reviewed over time.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm session options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow a quieter short check-in between commitments, or avoid being on camera when that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can offer a range of session styles depending on what suits the client.
