About Sara

Sara Robinson is a Washington Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, eating issues, depression, and young adult issues. Sara works with adults navigating early adulthood challenges and women's issues using evidence-based techniques.

Sara keeps sessions direct and practical. She prefers a laid-back style while asking clients to take the lead in sessions. She is straightforward and will offer accountability when it helps clients make progress. Conversations typically look like clear goal-setting, checking what’s working, and trying manageable strategies between meetings.

Her work often addresses the fallout from difficult relationships and past traumatic events. That includes support for people dealing with sexual assault, domestic violence, and post-traumatic stress. She also helps with body image and eating concerns, and with finding purpose after big life changes.

Sara uses trauma-informed perspectives to guide recovery and coping. She helps people identify patterns, practice emotion regulation skills, and build routines that reduce overwhelm. Expect collaborative problem-solving rather than long lectures or heavy theory talk.

Sessions are currently offered by chat and phone only. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to remote sessions

Two evidence-based directions inform her work: trauma-informed care and practical skills-based strategies. Trauma-informed care focuses on understanding how past hurt affects current reactions and helps people build steady coping habits. Skills-based strategies teach concrete tools for managing anxiety, improving mood, and changing unhelpful behavior patterns so daily life feels more manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with clients about goals, try things that fit their needs, and adjust methods if something isn’t helpful. This is a collaborative process where the client’s preferences and pace shape what comes next.

She offers phone and chat sessions only, so check the session options before booking. Those formats can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or avoid being on camera. Many people find they can practice skills between sessions and report progress through regular remote meetings with a licensed professional.
