About Judith

Judith Sachs is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 20 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflict, grief, and anger. Judith also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, body image, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking. She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Jungian ideas to guide conversations and choices.

Judith shares lived experience in recovery from addiction, and she uses that perspective when working with people who have substance use concerns. She describes that experience as part of how she connects and talks about recovery steps with clients. Discussions may include practical relapse prevention, coping strategies, and building routines that support recovery.

In session she aims to set clear goals, practice skills, and check progress. Expect a mix of talking, simple exercises, and reflection on patterns that keep problems going. She pays attention to everyday stresses like work, family, health, and money when planning steps forward.

Judith maintains a private practice in Florida and also meets people online. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, the listed process asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

BHow sessions work

How Judith Uses ACT, CBT, and Client-Centered Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based actions. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and situations that involve difficult emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, anger, and addictive behaviors.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the person leads the topics. That approach supports clearer self-understanding and practical problem solving, which can be useful when coping with family conflict, grief, or relationship stresses.

Choosing an approach is part of the work together. Judith will discuss options and try methods that match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions about which tools to use are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The biography notes she meets people online but does not list specific session formats. Confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find online meetings make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, medical appointments, or mobility limits. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when time is tight, not needing travel time, and being able to continue care when coming from different locations within the therapist's permitted area.
