SARA KOSTER-MARCON

Having worked as a Couple and Family Psychotherapist for 15 years, ​​I feel very grateful every day for being part of people's stories, share a celebration of the positive changes clients I have the honour to meet with, achieve therapeutically.
I have had the pleasure of working across different areas of London in children and adult NHS services, supporting the recovery of individuals and families affected by severe mental health difficulties and collaborating with schools, local authorities and health care agencies in delivering mental health training and compassionate practices to colleagues and teachers.
​
I currently offer online session on Zoom video and face to face sessions in a therapeutic clinic in New Milton and London. ​
​
Through my online practice, I enjoy the opportunity to meet with clients from different parts of the world, and allowing couples, parents and individuals to find a space for therapeutic sessions amongst busy work schedules and wider context pressures, bridging the barrier of spatial distance and time limits.
​
Although the online sessions takes place through talking, I encourage the parallel practice of engaging with the wisdom of mindfulness activities. Clients are invited to to tune in to their automatic nervous system and emotional responses to gain more understanding of the multi-layered web of their current difficulties and ways these are approached, towards integrating healthy responses both in the mind and body.
The therapeutic space becomes an opportunity to understand the current tapestry of relationships, emotions, thoughts and behaviours towards the chosen state of being present, belonging with meaning and confidence, navigating life and relationships feeling grateful and grounded.​​
​
A significant element for therapy to be successful is building a comfortable and trusting therapeutic relationship. Each person I meet in my work continuously enriches me in my therapeutic stance, wanting to provide a safe space for people to feel held, make sense of their experiences and grow in understanding, acceptance and love, towards more fulfilling lives and satisfying relationships. ​
​
I specialise in working with couples and families and I offer therapy both in English and Italian. ​
