About Sarah
Sarah Paulick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 17 years of clinical experience. She focuses on common early adult concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and life changes, and also works with trauma, grief, addictions, and issues related to identity and career. Sarah uses straightforward talk and practical skills to help people manage symptoms and make day-to-day changes.
Her background includes long-term work with at-risk populations and first responders, and she brings that experience to sessions with young adults and others facing high pressure. Sessions typically involve learning tools from cognitive behavioral approaches alongside attention to attachment patterns and emotional regulation skills.
Sarah draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. She blends these approaches to address trauma responses, dissociation, and burnout while helping clients build coping strategies for sleep, eating, and stress-related problems.
Practical goals are central in her work: improving communication, managing anger, addressing body image and self-esteem, and navigating transitions like starting a job or ending a relationship. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, chronic illness, or first responder-related strain.
Sessions are conducted in English for people located in Florida. Costs vary by location and are handled through a cancellable subscription model. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first appointment is scheduled via the site.
Approaches used in online sessions and what they do
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can help with anxiety, low motivation, and the feeling of being stuck during life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and problems with concentration or working life stress.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people recognize repeating relationship habits and develop healthier ways of connecting and communicating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and may combine approaches as needed. This is a joint process where goals and homework are discussed and adjusted over time.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and tools to work well in remote sessions while focusing on practical steps you can use between meetings.
