She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, blended family transitions, family of origin questions, and separation or divorce.

Online support options
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice stuck thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, life transitions, and when someone feels unsure about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce stress and improve mood. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving around daily challenges.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Sarah will check in regularly and adjust techniques so sessions stay focused and useful as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls allow a richer visual connection, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep appointments, work around schedules, and maintain continuity of care while using approaches like ACT and CBT in practical ways.
