About Sarah
Sarah Drobczyk is an AASW social worker and counsellor with ten years of experience supporting people through anxiety and life stress. She works in a down-to-earth way and believes clients know their own story. Her aim is to help people find practical steps that fit their lives.
Sarah uses a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and client-centred work. She brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing into sessions when helpful.
Background and approach
The focus is on skills you can use between meetings to manage anxiety, sleep problems, cravings and low mood. Her background includes helping people with addiction, trauma and grief, and long-term health and caregiver stress. She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, career worries and life transitions.
Practical strategies and gentle reflection sit alongside safety and pacing for people with trauma histories. Sessions are collaborative. Sarah listens first, then helps set clear goals and small steps to practise.
She values strength-based work and aims to build confidence and coping skills over time. People who choose her often want a therapist who is calm, direct and experienced with complex issues. She offers ways to manage anxiety symptoms, improve sleep, reduce substance use, and find clearer direction in work and relationships.
If someone is looking for steady support to make changes, Sarah focuses on doable tools, honest conversation and steady progress.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small committed actions. It helps people notice anxious thoughts without getting swept up in them and practise steps toward the life they want. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behaviour patterns that keep worry and low mood active. It teaches practical techniques for changing unhelpful thinking and building routines that improve sleep and mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will talk with clients about goals and preferences, then choose or blend methods that suit their needs. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made or new challenges arise.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful when exercises and non-verbal cues help the work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit quick goal-setting, coaching-style support or moments when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week and to keep practising skills between sessions.
