About Sarah
Sarah Paulick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and self-esteem concerns. Sarah also addresses issues like grief, relationship and intimacy-related struggles, addiction, and ADHD.
Her background includes long-term work with at-risk youth and adults, and experience supporting first responder and healthcare professionals. She draws on a range of approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and try new ways of responding. Sessions focus on concrete skills and manageable steps rather than abstract ideas.
Sarah often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to surface and test thinking patterns that keep problems stuck. She also incorporates acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take committed actions. Attachment-based work is used where relationship history affects current coping.
In practice she aims to help clients build internal strengths and identify helpful external resources. That can mean developing emotion regulation skills, addressing patterns tied to attachment and abandonment, or working through trauma-related symptoms like dissociation and nervous system dysregulation. She regularly addresses sleep, eating, body image, caregiver stress, and chronic illness concerns.
People who prefer practical, structured sessions that mix skill-building and reflective work may find her approach a fit. To begin, readers are asked to use the site process to match and schedule a first session so they can discuss goals and next steps.
How her approaches translate to online work
Sarah commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thought patterns and practice alternative behaviors. CBT sessions tend to be structured and skill-focused, which can fit well into shorter online check-ins or weekly work on skills and homework.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small actions that align with those values. ACT works well for concerns like anxiety, depression, and chronic stress where willingness and committed action are central. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and can involve mapping past and present relationship dynamics in conversation and exercises.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to prioritize based on current needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean emphasizing CBT skills one month and shifting to attachment-focused work the next.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by reducing travel time, allowing workday check-ins, or enabling shorter focused sessions when needed. Talk with the therapist during the initial meeting about which session rhythm and format best suit daily life and goals.
