About Sara
Sara Robbins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Colorado. She has five years of experience focused on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and issues tied to sexual identity. Sara combines practical strategies with steady support so people can feel more in control day to day.
She draws from several evidence-informed approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.
How Sara works
Sessions aim to identify current challenges and build concrete tools for coping with panic, intrusive memories, or overwhelming emotions. The work is collaborative and goal oriented. Sara pays attention to how early attachment, abandonment, and shame can shape present struggles.
She helps people name patterns around control, dissociation, and feeling empty, then practices alternative responses together. This includes short-term skills and longer-term processing when needed. She also addresses issues that come from prejudice, sexual assault, or military-related stress.
Conversations can cover guilt, forgiveness, loneliness, and rebuilding self-love after trauma. The tone is direct, respectful, and solution focused. Therapy sessions are offered in English and can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
People who are ready to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Sara uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different responses. CBT often focuses on concrete, short-term changes in behavior and thought patterns that can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.She also draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for managing intense emotions and improving tolerance for distress. DBT emphasizes practical strategies like grounding and emotion regulation that can be practiced between sessions.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is another approach used for processing traumatic memories. EMDR involves structured protocols to reduce distress linked to specific memories and can be adapted for online sessions when appropriate.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences, and symptom patterns and collaborate on which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful for each person.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for full sessions and visual cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat allows quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
