Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviors and experimenting with new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most, supporting people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful when moods feel intense or relationships feel strained.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sarah works collaboratively with each client to understand what is bringing them to therapy, what they want to change, and what style of support feels most helpful, then adjusts the plan over time based on progress and feedback.
