About Sarah
Sarah Haberman is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a main approach and combines it with motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas to help people feel steadier. Sarah aims for a warm, down-to-earth style that meets people where they are.
She focuses on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that get in the way of feeling better. Her work addresses stress, anxiety, depression, grief, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and trauma and abuse.
How Sarah works
She also helps with ADHD-related challenges, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of focus include body image, guilt and shame, forgiveness, isolation and loneliness, post-traumatic stress, seasonal affective disorder, and building self-love. In sessions she blends short, skill-focused work with deeper conversation about how past experiences affect current feelings.
That can look like trying new behavioral strategies, reflecting on relationship patterns, or setting small goals between sessions. Sarah describes her style as client-centered and gently challenging when needed. She has three years of professional experience supporting these concerns and holds a Minnesota LICSW.
Sessions are offered in English. Sarah uses a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. People who prefer plain talk and practical tools often find this approach helpful.
The practice emphasizes collaboration - working together to find what moves you forward.</description_html

How therapy approaches work online with practical tools
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and low self-esteem. It often uses concrete exercises and homework to build skills between sessions.Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about taking action, and it works by exploring values and small steps that feel doable.
Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and relationships shape current feelings and reactions. It can help when a person wants deeper understanding of repeating patterns and emotional triggers.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then tailor methods together. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize skills practice, motivation-building, or exploratory reflection.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions suit conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These formats make it easier to meet regularly and keep momentum on the goals you set.
