She brings seven years of clinical experience and a history of work in outpatient clinics, in-home care, and specialty clinics that addressed sexual assault, interpersonal violence, homelessness, and addictions.

She also helps people dealing with career changes, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include abandonment, body image, blended family issues, codependency, and communication problems.

Sarah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape practical steps between sessions. She helps people notice thought patterns, try new behaviors, and set achievable targets that fit daily life. Her style blends empathy with clear, actionable strategies.

Sessions are offered online by video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People who choose her can expect a steady, nonjudgmental space to work through problems and try new ways of coping.

How Sarah Uses Common Approaches Online

Sarah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving; this approach often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep issues. Client-Centered Therapy is a warm, listening-based approach where the person leads the conversation and the therapist reflects and supports their own goals. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical changes and building steps that move a person toward their own goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in about what is working and adapts plans so the work stays useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people share in moments between sessions or when typing feels simpler. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
