About Sarah
Sarah Burdett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 23 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting questions, and life transitions. Sarah’s practice includes support for issues like blended family dynamics, communication problems, and family of origin issues.
She keeps sessions practical and focused on what a person wants to change. Conversations explore current patterns, how those came from earlier family roles, and what different choices might look like now. Sarah uses methods that encourage small, concrete steps and regular check-ins on progress.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also integrates Gottman Method ideas for improving relationship interactions and Solution-Focused Therapy to build on what already works. Somatic techniques are used when body sensations are part of the problem.
In sessions Sarah helps people manage symptoms such as anxiety, shame, isolation, and stress tied to parenting or workplace demands. She also addresses perinatal concerns like pregnancy and postpartum mood changes and supports people coping with seasonal mood shifts.
Sarah frames goals in everyday terms - better sleep, clearer communication, less reactivity, or fewer panic episodes - and tracks progress with measurable steps. To begin, a brief questionnaire matches someone to her services and schedules the first meeting.
How Sarah’s approaches are used in online sessions
Sarah commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method during sessions. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and replacing them with experiments and new habits that reduce anxiety and improve mood. The Gottman Method centers on communication skills and small, concrete interactions that change how people relate to each other.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify what is already working and to build small, achievable goals. Together these approaches help address stress, relationship conflict, parenting challenges, and patterns rooted in the family of origin. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work; the therapist and client choose together based on goals and preferences.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since current options are set by the therapist’s practice. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions useful for keeping momentum between in-person meetings or for continuity during life changes.
