Online support
How her approaches guide online sessions
Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and the big questions that come with life change. It supports people who feel stuck by clarifying values and what matters most to them. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, pairs that values work with practical skills for handling painful feelings so people can act in line with their goals. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behavior, and it can help address trust, boundaries, and communication patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time based on what helps someone gain traction, combining talk-based exploration with concrete exercises when useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for fuller conversation and visual connection, phone works when bandwidth is limited or for more flexible check-ins, and chat or messaging can be used for brief updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling around work, caregiving, or health needs while keeping therapy practical and consistent.
