Background and approach
Her work often addresses trauma, grief, and life transitions. She also supports people facing attachment wounds, abandonment feelings, codependency, and issues tied to substance use. Practical problem solving and emotional skills training are common parts of the work.
Sarah draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. Those approaches guide how she helps people reduce unhelpful thinking, build coping skills, and clarify values. Sessions can include short teaching pieces, skill practice, and planning real steps to change.
Many people appreciate that she keeps conversations grounded and focused on actions that fit daily life. The goal is clearer thinking, fewer intense reactions, and more room to handle what matters most.
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Sarah often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions include learning simple tools to challenge negative thinking and trying behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions toward them even when emotions are uncomfortable. ACT can help when worry or avoidance keeps someone from doing what matters most.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. They will adjust the plan as needed based on what works for the individual.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, so people can pick what fits their routine. Video lets for face-to-face interaction and skill demonstrations. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging can support brief updates, coaching between sessions, or a flexible way to share reflections without scheduling a full video meeting.
