About Sarah
Sarah Roe is a licensed clinical social worker with 34 years in behavioral health. She brings long experience from community mental health to independent practice. Sarah focuses on helping people through stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and major life changes.
She uses plain talk and steady support to help people take the next step. Sarah believes therapy starts with a human connection. She listens with empathy and respects how hard it is to reach out for help.
Background and approach
Her style is collaborative - she works together with each person to find what fits their life and goals. That can mean learning new skills or simply naming what has been hard to carry. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered methods.
She also uses elements from acceptance and commitment work and dialectical behavior ideas when they match a person's needs. Those methods are tools to help people manage strong emotions, rebuild trust, and make clearer choices. Sarah has helped people with grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, career strain, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue among other challenges.
She also supports people coping with chronic illness, caregiving burdens, and effects of abuse or abandonment. Sessions aim to be practical and grounded. Conversations often include skill practice, building emotional awareness, and planning small steps forward.
The goal is to help each person feel more able to handle day-to-day life and the relationships that matter to them.

Online support
Attachment and evidence-based techniques for online care
Sarah blends attachment-based work with cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people better understand relationships, manage upsetting thoughts, and live by their values. Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape how someone connects and copes; it can help with trust, intimacy, and feeling understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and commitment therapy helps people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck and commit to actions that match their values, which can support coping during life transitions or chronic struggles.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made or needs shift, keeping the process collaborative and goal-focused.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets people connect face-to-face; phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited; text or chat can work for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy days and keep continuity when life is unpredictable.
