About Sarah
Sarah Veale is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee with 22 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood differences, relationship or family struggles, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, and questions about life purpose. Her approach centers on partnering with each person to build practical coping skills and clearer understanding.
She draws on client-centered principles to keep sessions focused on what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that get in the way. Mindfulness exercises are used to strengthen moment-to-moment awareness and calm. Solution-focused strategies support short-term goal setting and steps forward.
Sarah's background includes work across inpatient, residential, juvenile detention, outpatient, and managed care settings in three states. That variety shaped her ability to respond to a wide range of challenges and to adapt techniques to individual needs. She emphasizes practice outside sessions so skills translate into daily life.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative tone. Sarah aims to guide and teach skills, then confirm that those skills are being used between meetings. She checks messages regularly and strives to respond within about 24 hours Sunday through Friday.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding the person's experience and following their priorities in sessions, creating space for people to speak and be heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs rather than insisting on one method alone. This helps build a plan that feels useful and realistic.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time so meetings can occur from wherever it is easiest. Because the biography did not list specific session formats, please confirm the available online options before booking. The focus is on making therapy manageable alongside everyday life while using client-centered listening, CBT tools, and mindfulness practices to move toward the client’s goals.
