About Sarah

Sarah Paulick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who brings 17 years of experience to her work. She practices in Florida and focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She is also experienced addressing trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and a range of relationship and identity questions.

Her approach blends practical skills and open conversation. Clients learn ways to manage strong feelings, get better sleep, and handle parenting or career stress. Sessions often include tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to shape new habits and perspectives.

Sarah pays attention to how attachment and early relationships show up now. She uses attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns with partners and family of origin issues. That work aims to reduce repeated conflict and build more reliable ways of connecting.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. These techniques are used alongside client-centered methods that keep the person’s goals and values front and center. The result is a practical, flexible mix tailored to each person.

People come to Sarah for help with grief, body image and eating concerns, caregiver stress, and first-responder issues among other struggles. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when feelings are hard. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching ways to accept difficult thoughts while moving forward.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions that use attachment ideas help people name repeated relationship habits and practice new ways of relating to partners and family members.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and recommend a path that fits the person. That decision is collaborative and can shift over time based on what is most helpful.

Confirm session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing a commute and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They can also work well when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are preferable, and they let people continue care while managing work, caregiving, or travel commitments.
