About Sarah
Sarah Mossa is an experienced licensed counselor with two decades of clinical practice helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep problems, career challenges, addiction, parenting difficulties, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
She brings particular experience addressing ADHD, compassion fatigue, sexuality-related topics including BDSM and kink, and issues related to illness, caregiving, fertility, and aging. Sarah’s training includes LPCC and LPC credentials, held across multiple jurisdictions, and she frames work as a collaborative process focused on each person’s goals.
Her therapeutic stance combines compassion with practical strategies. She blends client-centered listening with evidence-informed tools such as cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, attachment-based ideas, and solution-focused interventions to help clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and make concrete changes.
Sarah accepts international clients and provides sessions from Illinois using video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Fees vary by location and availability and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability after selecting the Start Therapy button. Sarah aims to partner with each person to tailor an approach that fits their concerns and preferences.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current connections and can be helpful for people working on intimacy, communication, and commitment issues by identifying emotional needs and improving responsiveness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers clear tools for managing anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and unhelpful coping habits through skill-building and behavioral experiments. Motivational Interviewing supports people who are ambivalent about change by eliciting personal motivations and reinforcing small steps toward goals such as reducing substance use or improving self-care.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist works together with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then adapts methods over time so the work remains practical and aligned with what the client wants to achieve.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These remote options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity when travel or location changes occur, and allow ongoing support between sessions when needed.
