About Sarah

Sarah Calhoun is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, compassion fatigue, and sleep concerns. Her approach is practical and respectful, and she aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s situation.

She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. She also draws on Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused methods to set clear goals and address difficult memories or experiences. Sessions emphasize small, doable steps that fit into everyday life.

Sarah has three years of professional experience working with a wide range of concerns. That experience includes supporting people facing addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, chronic pain and illness, and work-related stress. She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns and problems with communication and boundaries.

In sessions she listens without judgment and adjusts the pace to what feels manageable. She works with people around eating concerns, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD-related issues, and transitions like divorce or caregiving changes. Practical skills, grounding, and goal-setting are common elements of her work.

People who meet with Sarah can expect a collaboration that focuses on clear next steps. She encourages questions and checks in about what is and isn’t helping. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

How Sarah uses therapy approaches online

Sarah draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT often involves tracking thoughts, testing what helps, and practicing new responses to stress and sleep problems.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and practical interpersonal tools. DBT-style skills can be useful for strong mood swings, high stress, and managing reactions to hard events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person’s needs. That collaborative process lets the therapist and client adjust focus if something isn’t working.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins on a work break, or remove travel time. They also let people practice skills in their usual day-to-day settings and then troubleshoot with the therapist during the next meeting.
