About Sarah

Sarah Tedrick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and self esteem struggles. She brings seven years of counseling experience and a long personal recovery path into sessions. Sarah writes and makes art outside therapy and often draws on creative ways to help clients process feelings.

She prefers to work collaboratively to find the approach that fits each person. Sessions focus on building a strong working relationship first, then practicing practical skills. Sarah uses plain language and simple exercises so people can use what they learn between meetings.

Her toolkit includes attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practice, and motivational interviewing. These methods are blended rather than presented as strict rules, and the mix is adjusted to match each person's goals and pace.

Sarah also has experience with addiction counseling and long-term sobriety, which inform how she talks about relapse risk, triggers, and recovery supports. She aims to make discussions about substance use straightforward and goal-focused without judgment.

People often leave sessions with one or two small steps they can try, such as a short mindfulness practice, a communication technique, or a behavioral experiment to test an assumption. She encourages steady progress and checks in about how the plan is working at each meeting.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how past relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they respond to closeness and conflict and try new, gentler ways of relating. Client-centered therapy emphasizes being heard and understood; sessions are shaped by the person's concerns and pace, helping people find their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That partnership guides which skills and exercises are used in sessions and between meetings.

Confirm the current online session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use practices like brief mindfulness exercises or behavioral experiments between sessions to build progress into everyday routines.
