About Sabrina

Background and approach
Her approach blends several well-known methods. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. She draws on attachment-focused work to look at relationship patterns and how they affect emotions.
Mindfulness and acceptance strategies are included to help people stay present and tolerate difficult feelings. Sabrina commonly helps people sort through parenting strain, grief, career stress, and the aftereffects of trauma and abuse. She also supports individuals dealing with sexual orientation or gender-related concerns and compassion fatigue from caregiving or high-stress jobs.
People can expect calm, practical conversations that focus on clear goals. Sabrina works with each person to build skills that fit daily life. She encourages realistic steps and checks progress along the way.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values-driven action so someone can take steps toward a meaningful life even while uncomfortable feelings remain. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change those patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before to identify which methods fit best. Together they will try strategies and adjust the plan based on what helps most in day-to-day life.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video lets people see nonverbal cues and work more closely through exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging provide a way to stay connected between longer sessions and to fit support into busy schedules. These options make it easier to fit consistent work on goals into a hectic life.
