About Sarah
Sarah Haberman is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Minnesota who focuses on practical ways to reduce anxiety and stress. She combines clear, goal-focused methods with a warm, person-centered style. Sessions aim to help people manage sleep problems, low mood, and overwhelming worry.
Her approach is straightforward and adaptable to each person's needs. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Motivational Interviewing is part of her work when people feel stuck or unsure about change. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns that repeat over time. Clients often come for help with grief, self-esteem, loss of motivation, ADHD challenges, or trauma and abuse.
She also supports people dealing with body image, guilt and shame, loneliness, seasonal mood shifts, and compassion fatigue. Conversations center on what matters most to the client and practical steps they can try between sessions. Her style is warm and respectful while still offering gentle challenge when useful.
She aims to meet clients where they are and adjust methods to fit personal goals and pace. That means some sessions focus on skills practice and homework, while others look more deeply at life history and patterns. Sarah has three years of experience in clinical work and provides care in English.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy schedules.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Sarah commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and low mood because it focuses on practical strategies you can try between sessions.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters and find their own reasons to change. This approach can make it easier to move forward when motivation feels low or goals feel unclear. Psychodynamic ideas are sometimes brought in to notice repeating life patterns and how past experiences affect present feelings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide whether to emphasize skills-based CBT, motivational conversations, or exploration of patterns. Goals, preferences, and everyday demands guide which methods are used and how sessions are structured.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skills practice, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can fit quick check-ins or notes between sessions. These formats make it easier to schedule care around work, school, or family commitments while keeping therapy consistent and practical.
