Meet Sarah
Sarah Bargiela
Clinical Psychologist
Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, Masters in Child Development
Online & In-person
I’m Sarah, a clinical psychologist offering therapy in English, with a special interest in neurodiversity and immigration. I’ve worked therapeutically with children, teenagers and adults, with a wide range of lived experiences and cultural backgrounds. I moved to Denmark from the UK five years ago and completed my Clinical Doctorate at University College London in 2015.
I offer a safe and non-judgmental space to slow down, reflect, and openly explore what you are experiencing in the present moment. Whether that might be managing a life transition, understanding your neurotype or getting support with loss, anxiety, stress, shame, anger, sadness, or overwhelm.
I will often explore how early relationships may influence how we have learned to respond to the here and now. I am also curious about how the narratives we tell about ourselves and those others tell about us may influence how we make sense of our experiences. Together, we can consider which responses or narratives may be more or less helpful in moving you towards a more balanced way of being. I aim to support you in finding ways to notice, describe, feel, and respond to situations, with a view to providing you with tools to help you grow and thrive beyond the therapy hour.
Sarah’s Approach
I’m an integrative therapist drawing from a range of methods. My approach is tailored to each person and is based on what you bring to our sessions. We may use one or a combination of the following approaches:
Brief psychodynamic therapy where you can understand how unconscious patterns from the past drive behaviours in the present.
Cognitive behavioural therapy, exposure therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy explore how thoughts, feelings and actions are linked, and how awareness of how we choose to behave, react, and process emotions can help us grow.
Narrative therapy focuses on the stories you tell about yourself and how these narratives shape how you relate to yourself, the problems you might be experiencing and the future.
Systemic therapy involves understanding who you are as part of a larger social network and reflecting on interactions within your family, relationships, and workplace to make sense of recurring unhelpful patterns
What Can We Address
Some experiences I can support you with include:
Exploring your neurotype, to better understand who you are and how you process the world.
Anxiety and stress: Find ways to notice and address the causes of anxiety and stress in your daily life.
Loss and grief: make space to process miscarriage, losing a child, a partner, a loved one, a friend or something else significant in your life
Depression: managing low mood, lack of motivation and apathy
Immigration experiences: exploring what moving home and finding belonging somewhere new might mean to you.
Life transitions: starting with where you are now, and your current identity and how life events might be affecting you, be it parenthood, separation, divorce, job transitions or feeling stuck and uncertain of how to make the next step.
Relating to others: understanding your relationship dynamics with parents, partners, children, family members or friends.
