Welcome to
Sarah Thomson Therapy
Life can feel overwhelming at times. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, stress, low mood, relationship difficulties, loss, self confidence or simply feeling stuck..
I’m here to provide a safe, supportive space where you can talk openly, feel heard and begin making positive changes.​
Services
​I offer couples therapy, individual psychotherapy and counselling as well as solution focused
hypnotherapy.
I tailor support for each client based their specific wants and needs. I combine evidence based approaches with a calm, warm and compassionate style. I have a wealth of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges and move towards a happier, more fulfilling future.
​
I offer online sessions or face to face from my peaceful therapy room on our gorgeous farm. It’s a private, quiet and extremely calming space.


About Me
Before I qualified as a Psychotherapist, I spent 16 years in education - 7 years as a primary school teacher, 7 years as a Depute Head Teacher and latterly an Acting Head Teacher in Edinburgh. I loved every minute of my previous career but due to changing circumstances in my life and relocating to the gorgeous Scottish Borders, I felt it was time for a change.
I have been running my busy therapy practice since 2020 and I can honestly say it's the best thing I've ever done.
I have an absolute passion for helping people and love working with adults of all ages. To see people make such great progress overcoming issues in their lives and leaving therapy happy, confident and where they want to be brings me so much joy.
I live on a farm just outside St Boswells with my husband Bill, my son Donnie and our menagerie of animals.
When I'm not with clients I love catching up with friends and family, long lunches, running and dog walks.
