Sherrine Barrowes, BACP

Sherrine Barrowes uses a blend of evidence-informed approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and the aftermath of trauma. She draws on ten years of experience and a client-centred attitude to support practical change. Sherrine speaks English and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally.

She practices Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside attachment-focused work and cognitive-behavioural techniques. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps that fit into everyday life. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at helping people notice patterns and experiment with new ways of coping.

Sherrine helps people untangle issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency and communication problems. She also supports those navigating divorce, blended family tensions, fatherhood questions and intimacy-related concerns. Her approach emphasises understanding past influences while keeping attention on present goals.

People seeking help for dissociation, guilt and shame, infidelity, or questions of life purpose will find a mix of practical skills and reflective work. Sherrine uses emotion-focused techniques alongside tools for managing intense feelings when needed. She encourages clients to practice small changes between sessions.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is noted to indicate her professional standing. To begin, people complete an online matching form and then schedule sessions that suit their timetable.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Sherrine commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside cognitive-behavioural methods. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still take actions that matter to them. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and making values-led changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy and trust, and it can help with abandonment issues and attachment difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. This is a collaborative process where approaches can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging can suit people who prefer written check-ins or brief, more frequent contact. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
