Sarah Tedrick

Sarah Tedrick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and relationship or parenting struggles. She brings seven years of counseling experience and a long personal recovery journey to her work. Sarah speaks English and practices from Oregon. Sarah prefers a collaborative approach that centers the relationship between therapist and client. She uses mindfulness therapy to help people notice thoughts and sensations without judgment. She also draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to create a warm, responsive space. Cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing are available when helpful for skills and decision-making. In sessions she listens first and asks questions to clarify what matters to each person. Practical skills like grounding, emotion regulation, and communication strategies are taught and practiced. She integrates life experience and empathy rather than focusing only on labels or tests. Sarah has experience supporting people through trauma, addiction, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and major life transitions. She also supports concerns tied to adoption and foster care, abandonment, blended family stress, codependency, and domestic violence. Her background includes years of motherhood and long-term recovery from substance use. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability. The process is framed as a joint effort to find the best fit for the client’s goals. Sarah encourages small first steps and normalizes that reaching out can feel difficult.

How therapy approaches guide online work

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts, emotions, and body sensations without getting caught up in them. It is often used to reduce reactivity and build steady coping during stress and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating that feel safer and more connected. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening deeply and reflecting what matters most to the person seeking help, helping them find their own solutions and strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Sarah treats the choice of methods as collaborative and adapts tools to the client’s goals and preferences. She will check in together about what feels helpful and adjust techniques over time so sessions fit changing needs.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow people to meet from familiar locations. It also makes shorter check-ins possible when a full in-person appointment feels like too much. Licensed professionals can use a mix of reflective conversation, guided mindfulness practice, and skill coaching effectively in nontraditional session settings.
