About Sarah
Sarah Paulick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 17 years of experience. She practices in Florida and helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction. She also supports clients dealing with relationship, parenting, grief, career, and LGBT-related concerns.
Her background includes long-term work with diverse communities and people in high-stress roles. That experience shapes a practical approach. Sessions focus on building coping skills, improving communication, and addressing past hurts that keep problems repeating.
How Sarah works
Sarah blends straightforward talk with skills practice. She uses methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new behaviors, and build values-based choices. Sessions may include emotion regulation tools and exercises to reduce overwhelming reactions.
She pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns that affect how people connect and feel safe. Work can include addressing abandonment, codependency, body image, caregiver stress, or family-of-origin issues. Sarah also helps people coping with chronic pain, dissociation, and recovery concerns.
Parents and caregivers can find support for the daily strain of raising children and juggling responsibilities. People facing major life changes, divorce, or the aftermath of disasters can get help sorting priorities and making practical plans. The tone in sessions is warm, direct, and goal-focused.
Outside of work she enjoys time on the water and activities with her dogs. That down-to-earth side often informs a calm, steady style in sessions.

Using evidence-based approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes by reducing avoidance and increasing purposeful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors. It often helps with anxiety, mood concerns, sleep problems, and coping with stressful situations. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and reactions. It can be helpful for intimacy problems, abandonment concerns, and codependency issues.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they will adjust methods over time so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues when needed. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not preferred. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
