About Sarah
Sarah Rinaldo is an Ohio LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with nine years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, and parenting pressures. She also addresses trauma-related problems and offers EMDR alongside other counseling approaches.
She helps people who feel burdened by past wounds or by patterns learned in their family of origin. Sessions focus on noticing how those early roles and expectations still shape thoughts, feelings, and choices today. Conversations are direct and practical, with an emphasis on everyday coping and clearer thinking.
Her background includes training in several therapy approaches that guide how she works. Those approaches include Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Narrative Therapy. EMDR is offered as a supplement to her regular counseling services.
In a typical session she talks through current stressors, patterns in relationships, and specific behaviors that keep problems going. She uses CBT tools to look at thoughts and actions, attachment ideas to map relationship patterns, and narrative work to help people make sense of difficult memories. Practical coping skills and clear next steps are common outcomes of sessions.
People in Ohio will find her work grounded in both trauma-focused strategies and concrete skills for daily life. She provides straightforward guidance for parents juggling family demands and for adults trying to change long-standing patterns inherited from their family of origin.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape present relationships. It helps people recognize patterns learned in their family of origin and try different ways of relating in current life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses clear exercises and behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, shift thinking, and change unhelpful habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on emotion and connection in relationships and can help people identify and express core feelings that influence interactions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to prioritize and adjust the plan as progress or setbacks appear.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people access EMDR and other trauma-focused methods without changing their everyday routine. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets, and narrative work for remote sessions so therapy can fit into busy lives.
