About Sarah
Sarah Paulick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 17 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. She practices from Florida and uses practical, body-aware methods alongside talk therapy to help clients feel steadier in day-to-day life. She takes a straightforward, calm approach in sessions.
Conversations focus on what is happening now and small steps that make a difference. She listens for how the body and emotions show up, then helps people notice patterns and try new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Her background includes long experience with trauma, grief, addictions, mood concerns, and caregiving stress. She also supports people facing career strain, relationship troubles, body image struggles, and attention-related difficulties. That experience informs a flexible mix of methods rather than one fixed technique.
In practice she uses somatic awareness, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-informed perspectives, client-centered listening, and cognitive-behavioral tools. Sessions aim to build coping skills, steady nervous system responses, and clarify values and goals. Work may include breath and grounding exercises alongside practical behavior changes.
Sarah pairs clear explanations with gentle guidance so people can try things between sessions. She includes attention to identity, grief, and cultural context when relevant. Her style suits someone who wants concrete strategies and a therapist who pays attention to both body and thought.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. Therapy options include video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different needs and routines.
Approaches that connect body and thought in online sessions
Sarah uses somatic-informed work to help people notice bodily signals linked to stress and trauma, then practice simple grounding and breath techniques to reduce overwhelm. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions guided by those values while accepting hard feelings. Attachment-based ideas help identify repeating relationship patterns and build safer ways of relating to others and to yourself.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your story, discuss options, and try methods that fit your goals and comfort level. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to check in between appointments, and to practice skills in the settings where problems occur. Licensed professionals can guide somatic exercises, values work, and behavior strategies through these formats while adapting methods to what works best for each person.
