About Sarah
She has twenty years of experience in counseling and brings a straightforward, team-based style to sessions. Sarah listens first, then helps clients set clear goals and practical steps. She works with members of the LGBT community and with people from a range of faith backgrounds including Christianity, Catholicism, Buddhism, and Judaism.
Sarah uses methods that focus on how people relate, think, and move toward solutions. In sessions she may focus on attachment patterns, thought and behavior changes, motivational conversations, or short-term goal work. The aim is to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and track progress.
Her background includes work with law enforcement, military, veterans, and their spouses, alongside civilian populations. That experience informs her approach to stress, trauma-related concerns, and first responder issues. The tone in sessions is collaborative and practical.
Sarah offers counseling by phone and video and helps clients figure out next steps. To begin, people typically complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time to meet and set goals.

How her approaches translate to online counseling
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape how people connect and respond to stress. Online sessions can help clients identify those patterns and practice new ways of relating with partners or family members. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In video or phone sessions clients learn to notice unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try different behaviors between meetings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they set clear goals, try strategies in everyday life, and adjust the plan based on what is working.
The profile indicates phone and video counseling are offered, but confirm the exact session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people connect from different locations, which can help when caregiving or work demands make in-person visits difficult.
