Evidence-informed approaches, made accessible online
Sarah Paulick integrates trauma-informed care with practical, skills-based therapy that can translate well to online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, then building strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.She also draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which emphasizes everyday tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship effectiveness. DBT can be especially helpful when emotions feel intense, when reactions happen quickly, or when it is hard to stay grounded during conflict or overwhelm. Attachment-Based Therapy may be included to explore how early relationships shape current connection, boundaries, and trust, supporting people who want to heal attachment wounds and strengthen relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sarah works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then tailors sessions accordingly.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to stay consistent, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and access support from home or while traveling within eligible locations.
