About Sarah
Sarah Wall is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family concerns, addictions, ADHD, and parenting challenges.
She uses straightforward talk and practical strategies in sessions. Sarah draws from cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior methods to address thinking patterns, emotion regulation, and coping skills. She also uses client-centered and solution-focused techniques to help people set and reach clear goals.
Sarah has experience in school social work, clinical counseling, and work with people affected by substance issues, gambling, grief, foster care and adoption, and life transitions. That breadth gives her a practical view of how problems show up in day-to-day life and in family routines.
In meetings she keeps a relaxed and nonjudgmental tone. Sessions focus on what is useful now - learning concrete skills, shifting unhelpful habits, and planning next steps. She will work with each person to clarify priorities and choose approaches that fit their situation.
People can expect direct conversation about coping tools, communication, and problem-solving. Sarah combines short-term problem work with attention to longer patterns when needed. Her practice tends toward practical supports that fit into busy lives.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify their goals, feel heard, and choose steps that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills to handle strong feelings and improve reactions to conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and daily routines to decide which methods to try first. That plan can change as progress is evaluated, and decisions are made together in session.
The original profile lists messaging and live chat as session formats. If you are considering online care, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what is offered. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule therapy around work, school, and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can use the session time to teach skills, review exercises, and set practical steps to use between meetings.
