Sarah Roe, LCSW

Sarah Roe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 34 years of experience in the behavioral health field. She has provided care across settings ranging from community mental health centers to private practice, working with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, codependency, addictions, abuse and trauma, anger management, and stress-related concerns. Her long tenure reflects a commitment to practical, evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and wellness management and recovery.

Throughout her work, Sarah emphasizes the importance of an empathic connection. She honors the courage it takes to begin therapy and approaches each person with genuine interest and respect, creating a space where clients can feel understood and accepted. Her style is collaborative - she sees therapy as a partnership in which the client’s strengths and perspectives guide the path forward.

Guided by principles that each person is doing the best they know how and that solutions often come from within, Sarah helps clients build skills, increase awareness, and practice new ways of navigating life’s challenges. As an LCSW, she brings both professional training and a compassionate presence to support healing, recovery, and renewed direction.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and build small, practical steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships that began early in life and how those patterns affect current connections. It can help with relationship difficulties, intimacy-related concerns, and attachment issues by strengthening emotional awareness and interpersonal safety.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a structured approach that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with skills that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. It is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and coping with change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Sarah collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the plan over time as progress and needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility that can make ongoing work easier to maintain. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow people to access licensed professionals from home, during breaks, or while traveling, making it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue care when in-person visits are not possible.
