About Sarah

Sarah Freeman is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, trauma, and major life changes. She draws on 19 years of clinical experience to offer steady, practical support during hard moments.

She listens first to understand what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and simple steps people can try between meetings. Sarah aims to reduce overwhelming feelings and build coping habits that fit everyday life.

Her work covers problems such as communication difficulties, struggles with commitment or dependence, family of origin issues, and recovery from separation. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, and the emotional fallout of natural or human-caused disasters.

Sarah uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to the situation in front of her. She emphasizes practical tools for managing cravings, intrusive memories, intense worry, and grief so clients can regain a sense of routine and choice.

Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental presence that encourages self-reflection and steady progress. Her approach values both short-term relief and longer-term growth, with attention to the person’s strengths and life context.

Sarah is licensed as an LPCC in Kentucky and conducts her practice in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Sarah draws from evidence-based techniques to help people manage symptoms and build coping skills. One approach focuses on teaching concrete coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing methods, behavioral activation, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. These tools are meant to reduce day-to-day overwhelm and restore routine.

Another common method she uses helps people process traumatic memories and strong emotions. This work includes techniques to ground the body, reduce intrusive thoughts, and practice tolerating distress in manageable steps. It can help with trauma, grief, and reactions after disasters.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. Clients and therapist work together to pick techniques that match needs and preferences.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking since formats were not specified. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules require them. Talk with the therapist about what will fit your routine and the kinds of sessions that will best support your goals.
