About Sarah
Sarah Tedrick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. She also supports those facing challenges with parenting, self-esteem, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Sarah draws on long personal and professional experience to offer steady, practical help.
Sarah brings a background in art and art therapy to her work, along with counseling experience and many years of sobriety. She emphasizes collaboration and building a dependable working relationship. Sessions focus on clear goals, step-by-step strategies, and noticing what works in day-to-day life.
Her approach often blends attachment-based thinking, client-centered care, and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she pays attention to how relationships shape feelings, centers the person's experience, and uses concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also appear when they fit a client's goals.
In sessions she aims for calm, straightforward conversations. People can expect to talk through patterns, practice new skills, and make small changes that add up. She values listening first and adjusting the work to each person.
Sarah has seven years of counseling experience in clinical roles and community settings. She works with adolescents, young adults, and adults who want practical support and clear next steps. If someone is unsure where to start, she helps them set manageable first goals and plans for moving forward.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence present behavior. Online sessions can help people notice relationship patterns, practice new ways of connecting, and reframe difficult interactions. Client-centered therapy centers the person's lived experience and priorities, offering a space where the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead; this approach supports anyone wanting validation and clarity about their next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific tools to change unhelpful patterns; CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and behavior changes.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which methods fit each person's goals and preferences. Together they try things, notice what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it simpler to continue work during life transitions and to practice skills in everyday contexts. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for timing, length, and the kind of session that meets practical needs.
