Sarah Clemmons, LCSW, CSW

Sarah Clemmons is a licensed clinical social worker with a decade of practice in Georgia. She uses a down-to-earth style and helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, career struggles, and major life changes. She encourages clients to build on their strengths and take practical steps toward feeling better.

Sarah emphasizes collaboration. She listens first, then helps clients set clear goals and small, manageable steps. Sessions focus on skills that can be used between meetings, such as coping strategies, thought reframing, and routines that support sleep and mood.

Her work often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and client-centered conversations. Those methods are used to identify unhelpful thinking, practice new reactions, and notice patterns that keep problems stuck. She also uses tools from dialectical behavior therapy and narrative therapy when they fit a person’s needs.

Sarah helps with a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and body image. She pays attention to how daily habits, communication, and stress buildup affect mood and functioning. Practical problem solving and clear next steps are frequent parts of sessions.

Communication options include video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Sarah will check messages daily and works with clients to find a schedule that fits their life and goals.

Practical approaches for online therapy

Sarah commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new, more helpful responses; CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and stress. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means conversations are guided by the client’s priorities and pace, helping people feel heard and more able to make changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are sometimes taught for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, offering concrete tools for intense feelings or interpersonal conflict.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs, and comfort level, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients help set priorities and choose which skills to practice between sessions.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, skill practice, and when someone prefers written communication. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity between appointments.
