About Sadie
Sadie Paulucy is a counsellor who aims to help people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn. She uses straightforward, respectful listening to help clients make sense of difficult feelings and find practical ways forward. Sadie has nine years' experience and works with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief and issues related to LGBT identity.
Sadie blends several approaches so sessions match each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on client-centred work to keep the conversation grounded in the person’s own experience. Attachment-based ideas help when old relationship patterns keep repeating and causing pain. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, difficult relationships and parenting pressures.
Sessions focus on small, manageable steps as well as understanding where problems may come from. The aim is to reduce immediate distress and build lasting ways of coping. Sadie describes her style as non-judgemental and paced to the individual.
She helps people find tools they can use between sessions while also looking at deeper patterns when that feels important. The work is collaborative - goals are set together and reviewed as progress is made. Sadie is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.

How Sadie’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and then commit to actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current trust and connection; it can help with relationship issues and intimacy-related concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit best, based on their goals and what feels helpful. That decision is reviewed over time so work can shift as needs change.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so check current options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into busy days, remove travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it possible to keep continuity of care if someone moves or is living abroad. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt ACT and attachment-based techniques to remote sessions using conversation, worksheets and between-session tasks to support progress.
