About Sarah
Sarah Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with ten years of clinical experience. She has worked in private practice and agency settings and focuses on everyday challenges like anxiety, stress, relationships, grief, and coping with life changes. She also lists ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, parenting strain, and career issues among her areas of work.
Sarah uses present-focused, solution-oriented work that centers on the practical steps people can take now. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help people notice patterns of thinking, manage intense emotions, and practice new skills. Sessions emphasize respectful conversation and clear boundaries.
Her background includes a B.A. in psychology from the University of Missouri and an M.Ed. from Stephens College. Over a decade, she has seen a range of situations, including clients with trauma histories, grief, behavioral concerns, and mood disorders. She has experience with foster care youth and people affected by adoption and family-of-origin issues.
In sessions she talks through concrete strategies for handling overwhelming feelings, improving communication, and organizing daily life. She will work with someone to set short-term goals and develop skills to cope between meetings. The focus is on practical steps that fit into everyday routines.
Parents and young adults often contact her about leaving home, study or work stress, relationship conflicts, and feeling behind. She accepts clients from outside the U.S. and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Sarah’s approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help when people feel blocked by worry or uncertainty and want to move toward a clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships influence current patterns and can help with communication, commitment, and family-of-origin issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and how problems show up day to day. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps match tools to the client’s needs rather than imposing a single method.
Session format details are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can still fit into a busy life by reducing commute time and making it easier to schedule short check-ins, longer weekly meetings, or evening appointments. They also let people keep therapy consistent while moving for work or study, with the therapist and client arranging times that suit their routines.
