About Sherrine
Sherrine Barrowes is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has 10 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and low mood. Sherrine emphasises clients' own strengths and experience when beginning therapy.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotions that are hard to name and how they affect close relationships. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and make values-based choices. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters most to the client.
Sherrine helps people untangle issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, avoidant personality patterns, and codependency. She also supports those dealing with divorce and separation, blended family challenges, and fatherhood-related pressures. Practical communication skills and clearer boundaries are common targets in her work.
People who feel dissociated, caught by guilt or shame, or unsure about life purpose can bring those topics into sessions. She works with problems related to infidelity, forgiveness, and family of origin tensions in straightforward ways. The aim is to name patterns and try small changes in thinking and behaviour.
Sessions are held in English and Sherrine accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people follow the site's online matching steps and schedule an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and naming emotions and the interaction patterns they create in relationships. It is commonly used when strong feelings are hard to understand or when attachment needs shape how people behave. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, and then choosing actions that match personal values; it is useful for anxiety, stress and life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the options and decide together which methods fit the client's needs, goals and preferences. That shared decision guides whether EFT, ACT or attachment-focused work leads the sessions and how techniques are blended.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, quieter surroundings or a shorter check-in can be arranged more readily than travelling to appointments. It also removes travel time and lets people schedule sessions around work or family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, emotion-focused conversations and behavioural tasks for remote sessions to keep progress moving forward.
