About Sarah
Sarah Feingold is a licensed clinical social worker with 16 years of experience in California. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She creates conversations and plans that fit the individual's situation.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and she recognizes that courage it takes. Sarah focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She also supports people facing abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver strain, and communication problems.
How Sarah works
Other areas she helps with include divorce and separation, family of origin issues, and struggles with guilt or shame. Her work draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods to build trust and clarify what matters in relationships. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that keep problems going.
Narrative and Solution-Focused approaches help people reframe their stories and set small, practical goals. Sessions are designed to be collaborative. Sarah listens first, then tailors a plan to the client's needs and preferences.
She aims for clear steps that people can practice between sessions to see real change. Sarah offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. She works in English and practices in California as an LCSW.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and safety in close connections. It helps people notice patterns from past bonds that show up now and builds new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, with the therapist offering empathy and nonjudgmental listening to help someone find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors together to break cycles that feed anxiety or depression and to teach practical coping skills.Choosing the right approach is part of working together. The therapist will talk about goals and preferences, then try approaches that fit the person's situation. That process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions can be simplest when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can provide brief check-ins, mood tracking, or a way to process between longer sessions. These options give flexibility for scheduling and different comfort levels while using the therapist's chosen methods.
