About Sarah

Sarah Roe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with 34 years of clinical experience. She has worked across community mental health settings and private practice, helping people with depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and other life changes.

She uses straightforward, skills-focused work grounded in therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). Sessions emphasize practical strategies for managing symptoms, improving communication, and making day-to-day life more manageable. Sarah describes therapy as a collaborative process rather than her providing fixed answers.

Her approach begins with listening and building a working relationship. She treats clients as people trying their best and looks for workable steps forward. That might mean practicing new coping skills, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, or trying small behavior changes to test new ways of living.

Sarah also pays attention to attachment patterns and relationship dynamics. That can include helping people understand how past loss or abandonment affects current relationships, and working on intimacy-related issues and codependency patterns. She brings decades of experience to these topics while keeping the work practical and task-oriented.

People who prefer clear goals, concrete tools, and a team approach to problem solving tend to fit her style. Before a first session she asks clients to outline current concerns so time can focus on immediate problems and next steps.

BHow sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small behavior steps toward those values, while helping people tolerate difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses structured exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change repetitive relationship responses, which can help with intimacy issues and patterns like abandonment or codependency.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sarah approaches therapy as a collaborative process and will help clients choose which methods to try based on current needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean mixing ACT strategies with CBT exercises or adding DBT skills practice when emotional regulation is a concern.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work or family schedules, allow for shorter check-ins, or avoid travel time. Online work also makes it possible to use between-session exercises, worksheets, and real-time practice of skills in everyday settings.
