Meet Sarah
Counsellor and psychotherapist
I am Sarah Drewer and I offer counselling and psychotherapy in Ibiza and online. I believe that we all have the capacity for growth and change given the right environment. Creating that environment can start with finding a therapist you connect and feel safe with.
As individual and unique beings it makes sense to me that there is no ‘one size fits all model’ when it comes to therapy. Naturally, different people need different things at different times.
I practice pluralistic therapy, which is an integrative and collaborative approach. We can draw on a number of specialist skills and different modalities I am trained in (Person-Centred, Existential, Emotion-Focused, Creative Arts, Transactional Analysis and Gestalt) to help tailor-make something that is best suited to you, meeting you where you are.
The wonderfully dynamic process of therapy is proven to work best when it is co-created (between therapist and client) in the presence of genuine warmth, open-mindedness, listening and acceptance. These qualities are at the heart of my practice, and I will always encourage you to be an active agent in the therapeutic process. As time goes on this will help you see more clearly what might be holding you back or getting in your way and what you will need to create long-lasting change.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to its Ethical Framework for Good Practice. I am also a member of the Association for Person-Centred Creative Arts (APCCA).
I hold a BSc (Hons) and a Diploma in Advanced Pluralistic Person-Centred Counselling from the highly respected Metanoia Institute in London, where I completed a rigorous four-year in-person training program. I also hold a Certificate in Person-Centred Creative Arts Therapy.
Born and raised in the UK, I have lived with my family in the beautiful mountains of northern Ibiza, Spain, for the past ten years. My personal therapy journey has been life-changing, and I continue to grow and benefit from its many gifts.
For ethical and safe practice, I attend regular supervision.
Who I work
with
“Often the hands will solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain.” – Carl Jung
Sometimes words just don’t feel like enough to express what we’re going through. Our experiences can be so deep or tangled that it’s hard to make sense of them with our rational minds. That’s where creativity can help.
Using tools like images, sand trays, or other creative mediums, we can tap into the intuitive, emotional side of the brain, offering a safe and powerful way to explore feelings and experiences that may be hard to put into words.
You don’t need to think of yourself as “creative” to benefit from this kind of work—it’s about self-expression, not artistic ability. Together, we’ll use these tools to help unlock insights, process emotions, and find healing in ways that feel natural and meaningful for you.
Being in relationship
You may be facing challenges or noticing patterns in your relationships—whether with a partner, ex, parent, child, friend, or even within yourself. Exploring these dynamics in a calm, supportive environment, away from the emotional intensity of daily life, can bring clarity and awareness.
Together, we can uncover the blocks or unhelpful behaviours that may be holding you back, helping you to better understand yourself and your relationships. This insight creates the space for growth, change, and healthier connections.
Trauma
Some experiences from our past—particularly childhood—can stay with us, quietly shaping how we feel, think, and respond to life. In our work together, we’ll create a safe and supportive space to explore these moments, understand their impact, and see how they show up in your present life.
This isn’t about dwelling on the past but about gaining insight and perspective. By understanding these patterns, you can begin to loosen their grip and find ways to move forward with more freedom and self-awareness.
Depression, anxiety,
low mood, loss of interest.
Feeling any of these for prolonged periods of time can be incredibly difficult and isolating. We can explore what might be causing you to feel this way and find ways to manage depression or gain relief from anxiety or panic.
Emotion Focus
Getting to know how to accept, express, regulate and transform emotions can
be life changing. Coming to see your emotions as powerful tools to be
embraced rather than avoided or controlled opens up a new capacity for self-healing.
This is especially important when
working with OCD, intrusive
and obsessional thoughts..
Life brings
Loss, grief, bereavement, illness, diagnosis, disability, divorce, separation.
Finding space, support and ways to process and accept life on life's terms is critical in being able to move on and grow.
Maybe you’re noticing an unhealthy relationship to substances, alcohol, medication, food, shopping, sex, relationships, porn, exercise or something else. I have worked in the field of addiction for over 12 years and am a counsellor at the island’s residential rehab clinic, Ibiza Calm.
Addiction is often referred to as a ‘family disease’ and I work with family members and loved ones whose lives are also impacted by addiction.
