Sarah Fitt
Psychologist
Sarah's journey into psychology reflects a profound integration of personal experience and professional expertise. Her early encounters with performance challenges in sport sparked a curiosity about the interplay between psychology, the mind, and overall well-being. This personal insight, combined with her experiences working with a psychologist, ignited her passion to help others navigate similar challenges in various aspects of their lives, from daily routines to professional endeavours.
Sarah’s approach to therapy is both empathetic and comprehensive. Her background in sports psychology provides her with a unique perspective on mental health, allowing her to understand and address individual challenges with practical and effective strategies. Her professional experience across public health, community, and school settings, coupled with her use of evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness, equips her to offer adaptable and holistic support. Her focus on creating a warm and safe environment aligns well with her commitment to addressing issues like depression, anxiety, eating disorders and women’s health, ensuring that clients feel supported and empowered in their journey towards better mental health.
She has a particular interest in supporting women through the childbearing years and those dealing with pelvic pain, crafting individualised treatment plans that empower her patients to lead meaningful lives. Sarah sees this as a privileged opportunity to guide her patients through significant and often transformative experiences, valuing the trust they place in her to explore their vulnerabilities.
Outside of her professional life, Sarah enjoys staying active, socialising with friends and family, and indulging in a good romance novel. Her personal interests reflect her balanced approach to life and well-being, which she brings into her therapeutic practice.
