About Sarah

Sarah Calhoun is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, and relationship and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with codependency, addictions, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, and career or life-change challenges.

In sessions she uses clear, practical methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She also applies solution-focused strategies and trauma-focused work when needed. Conversations are direct and goal-oriented, with a focus on skills that can be used between sessions.

Sarah pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes that often underlie relationship patterns. She helps clients notice behaviors like people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing themselves in close relationships, then works through small, doable changes. That can include setting boundaries, improving communication, and managing strong emotions.

Her work also addresses caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, blended family concerns, and issues that follow separation or divorce. She offers support for first responders, and for people coping with forgiveness, control issues, or dissociation.

Sessions aim to combine short-term, solution-focused steps with skills for longer-term coping. Prospective clients are asked to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting to talk about goals and next steps.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Sarah frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thoughts and test out new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating problems, and everyday stress because it focuses on practical steps and homework.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger interpersonal boundaries. DBT techniques are often helpful when intense feelings or relationship patterns like people-pleasing get in the way of daily functioning.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Sarah will talk with each person about their goals, daily life, and what feels doable. Together they decide which methods to prioritize and how to track progress over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules require it. Licensed professionals can also adapt exercises and worksheets for remote use so clients can practice skills between meetings.
