About Sarah
Sarah Burdett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 23 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and major life changes. Sarah also lists blended family issues among her focus areas, so stepfamily concerns appear in her work.
Her sessions use straightforward conversation and practical tools. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method and Solution-Focused Therapy to address communication and set concrete goals. Somatic techniques are included when physical reactions to stress need attention.
Clients can expect clear, goal-oriented meetings that balance problem-solving with emotional processing. Sarah adapts the pace to what each person can manage and checks in on progress regularly. She names small steps and strategies that people can try between sessions.
She has long experience with parenting topics such as postpartum depression, fatherhood issues, and pregnancy and childbirth concerns. Family of origin issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, and workplace stress are also part of her caseload. These areas are often tied to how blended households manage roles and routines.
Sarah works in English and practises in Pennsylvania. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled via the site's online therapy options.
Approaches used in online sessions and practical fit
Sarah commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and social worries because it breaks problems into clear, actionable steps. The Gottman Method is applied to communication and relationship patterns; it focuses on improving how people talk and manage conflict. Solution-Focused Therapy is brought in to set short-term goals and build on what is already working.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist and the person she sees will discuss goals and what feels manageable. They will try techniques, check progress, and adjust the plan based on what helps most for communication, parenting, or blended household challenges.
