About Saskia
Her clinical focus includes trauma and abuse, mood disorders, anxiety, adjustment challenges, family dynamics including blended families, and care for LGBTQI clients. She also supports people facing substance use concerns, grief, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, sleep problems, and a range of attachment and behavioral issues. Her background includes substantial work with individuals and families affected by complex life changes and co-occurring conditions.
Saskia uses an eclectic approach that centers on meeting clients where they are, helping them build hope, and motivating sustainable change. She combines techniques and perspectives to fit each person’s needs rather than relying on a single method. In addition to her LMHC credential - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - she holds a Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional credential, reflecting specialized training in addiction treatment. Saskia invites potential clients to reach out and explore whether her experience and approach align with their goals.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the therapist follows the client’s lead. It helps people clarify their values, build self-understanding, and work through relationship or identity concerns by emphasizing the client’s strengths and goals.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and coping with life changes by offering clear tools for symptom relief and behavior change.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It can be especially helpful for managing intense emotions, impulsive behavior, and relationship challenges by providing structured skills practice and problem-solving techniques.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Saskia works with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and tailors techniques from these approaches to find the best fit. That collaborative planning helps ensure therapy aligns with each person’s pace and priorities.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions may take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules and to continue work through transitions. These options can increase access to licensed professionals and support consistent progress from wherever clients are located within the therapist’s service area.
