Sarah is so down to earth and so easy to talk to. I never wanted to try therapy because I felt like I would be judged until my anxiety got so bad that I was forced into it. I would never turn back now, Sarah is so friendly and really offers great advice and shes open to listen about anything. She makes me feel like im actually listened to for once and that I need to advocate for myself. I would be in a dark place without her and her guidance

More about Sarah

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I'm particularly passionate about working with young adults, women, and individuals experiencing significant life transitions.

My therapeutic approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each person's unique journey. I focus on empowering clients to develop stronger self-love, improve communication skills, and address underlying patterns that may be hindering personal progress. Whether you're struggling with workplace challenges, family dynamics, or personal growth, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space for exploration and healing.

I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients work through complex emotional experiences, including issues related to codependency, commitment challenges, and personal transformation. My goal is to support you in developing resilience, understanding your inner landscape, and creating meaningful change in your life.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
