Online support options
How Sara’s approaches work in online sessions
Sara frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on chosen values and meaningful action. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about life direction.She also works from a Client-Centered orientation, offering empathetic listening and reflection so clients feel heard and can find their own solutions. This method supports self-esteem, grief work, and creative expression in therapy.
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Sara will discuss goals and preferences and try approaches that fit the client’s needs. Decisions about which method to use are made collaboratively and can shift as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text can provide shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy days and to continue work even when traveling or relocating.
