About Sara
Sara Bice is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 16 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, work through family and relationship concerns, and cope with grief, trauma, and loss. She also supports clients facing addiction, intimacy struggles, and life transitions such as divorce or blending households.
Sara uses approachable, practical conversation in sessions. She listens for what matters to each person and then focuses on steps that can make daily life more manageable. That can include changing unhelpful thinking patterns, trying short skills for grounding and stress relief, or setting small goals to test new ways of handling conflict.
Her work draws on client-centered and solution-focused methods to keep sessions goal-oriented and respectful of the client’s pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ideas are used when thoughts and behaviors get stuck. Mindfulness techniques are offered when people need simple tools to steady intense feelings.
Sara has experience related to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, and blended family issues, and she is familiar with dynamics that come up for veteran spouses. She speaks English and practices in New York. Practical matters such as scheduling, fees, and session format are handled through the platform's sign-up and matching process.
People commonly start by describing the problem they want to change. From there she helps identify a next step and an early goal to work toward. The approach is straightforward: notice what’s not working, try an alternative, and check what helps next.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Sara commonly blends client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in sessions. Client-centered therapy means the conversation is led by the person seeking help; the therapist listens closely, reflects what matters, and supports the client’s own priorities. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood.She also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and mindfulness exercises to help manage intense emotions. Those approaches are practical - for example, brief grounding practices, thought records, or a short action plan to try between sessions. Choosing which approaches to use is a shared decision between the client and therapist based on needs and goals.
Confirm the platform's current session options before booking so you know the formats offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow quicker check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Video or phone sessions may let someone choose a quieter or shorter check-in depending on circumstances, but please verify which formats this therapist is offering when you schedule.
