About Sarah

Sarah Hewitt is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship struggles. She supports those dealing with parenting strain, grief, addiction, sleep problems, anger, and challenges like ADHD and bipolar disorder. Sarah describes a calm, steady presence and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.

She uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to look at painful events and how they affect daily life. Sessions emphasize self-reflection and learning to respond rather than react. Clients practice skills that encourage self-compassion and healthier interactions with others.

Sarah brings nine years of clinical work to sessions. She holds the Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential and the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, with practice in Indiana and Utah. Her background includes working with many kinds of concerns and life stages, and she tailors her work to each person’s needs.

Therapy sessions include validation, cognitive behavioral methods, acceptance and commitment ideas, and somatic awareness exercises when helpful. She also uses motivational interviewing to support change and readiness. The overall style is mindful and solution oriented, with actions to try between meetings.

People who meet with Sarah are invited to explore what sits at the root of their difficulties. She frames clients as the expert on their own lives and offers a nonjudgmental space to try new ways of coping and relating.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Trauma-Focused Therapy attends to how past painful events affect current thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Online sessions can include careful processing, grounding practices, and pacing that helps people face difficult memories without becoming overwhelmed.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values. In remote sessions this often looks like short exercises, behavioral experiments, and planning steps to try between meetings.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns. Online conversations often map key relationship moments and practice different ways of connecting and communicating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and circumstances change.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the listing does not specify formats here. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and reduce travel time so sessions fit into busy days. It also lets people use exercises and worksheets between meetings to reinforce new skills.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
