About Sabrina
Sabrina Shupe is a Utah Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with four years of post-military clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and codependency concerns. Sabrina draws on her time in community mental health and mobile crisis outreach to respond to urgent needs and ongoing challenges.
Sabrina uses straightforward conversation and practical strategies in sessions. She focuses on helping people notice how they react under pressure and then try small changes that fit day-to-day life. Sessions often include talking through recent situations, practicing new ways of responding, and tracking what does or does not help.
Her background includes direct work in community mental health settings and time on a mobile crisis outreach team. That experience shaped a style that balances practicality with attention to safety when someone is in distress. Her veteran background also informs how she thinks about service, structure, and resilience.
In the room she pays attention to patterns that keep problems going, such as people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, and getting swept up in others' crises. She supports people who want clearer boundaries, steadier mood management, or help sorting how attention to others affects their own goals.
Outside of clinical work she spends time on a small farm, plays volleyball, reads, and hikes. Those interests influence how she talks about balance and routines with clients.
How sessions work
Practical approaches for codependency and related issues
Evidence-based techniques often used for stress, anxiety, trauma, and attention differences include skills-based behavioral work and trauma-informed care. Skills-based behavioral work teaches concrete strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. It helps with things like setting limits, reducing avoidance, and building small daily habits that support steadier moods.Trauma-informed care focuses on recognizing how past harm affects current reactions. It looks at safety, pacing, and grounding strategies so people can face difficult memories without feeling overwhelmed. Together these approaches help people notice patterns and take manageable steps toward different responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sabrina will collaborate with each person to pick or adapt methods that fit their current needs, goals, and preferences. That means testing what works, adjusting pace, and checking in about whether a strategy feels useful.
