About Sarah
Sarah Bodden-Cheffen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns. Her practice also includes support for people coping with trauma, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, and codependency-related patterns.
She draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice what they do and why. That often means looking at thoughts and habits that keep someone stuck, then trying small changes to test a different way of responding. Sessions are straightforward and practical, with room to talk about feelings and real-life choices.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy is part of her approach when relationship patterns or attachment concerns come up. Mindfulness practices are used to slow down strong emotions and build steadier responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas show up when values and meaningful action are the focus.
She has worked with members of the LGBTQ+ community on relationship concerns, self-esteem, guilt, and shame. Sarah frames clients as the expert on their own story, and she aims to work alongside people to build skills they can use outside of sessions.
Practical matters such as scheduling and fees are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps even when feelings are hard. It focuses on choices and action rather than trying to eliminate every difficult emotion. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps people test new ways of thinking to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on emotional responses and attachment patterns that show up in relationships or when intimacy feels difficult.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed so sessions stay practical and relevant.
The original profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten a check-in when needed, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use these approaches to focus on skill-building, emotional processing, and clearer decisions while keeping sessions aligned with daily life.
