She works with adults on issues such as parenting, career strain, grief, trauma and abuse, and codependency. Sarah emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and a practical approach that fits a person’s life and goals.

She has a long history supporting parents and people caring for someone with disabilities, and she has more than two decades of experience working with children, adolescents, and teens in earlier roles.
In sessions she focuses on clear, achievable steps. She draws from approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. She also uses attachment-based and client-centered ways of engaging so people feel heard and involved in decisions about their care.
Sarah tailors her conversations and plans to each person’s needs. She encourages creative expression when it helps move the work forward, and she explains when certain methods - like art - require particular session formats. She aims to make therapy manageable and relevant to day-to-day life.
People who want a practical, compassionate therapist who values creativity and straightforward strategies may find her style a good fit. She practices in Florida as a licensed clinical social worker.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and decisions about work or family. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful habits. It is often used for anxiety, sleeping problems, and managing mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Decisions are made together so techniques match what the person wants to accomplish.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and let people choose a setup that feels comfortable for focusing on creative or discussion-based tasks. Some creative methods, such as using art materials in session, may require certain session arrangements, and the therapist will explain what works best during the intake conversation.
