About Sara

Sara Veldhuizen is an Indiana LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who want to better understand themselves and create lasting change, including people dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction.

Sara takes a collaborative, insight-oriented approach. She helps clients notice patterns of thought, feeling, and behavior that fuel frustration or resentment. Conversations focus on what is happening now and where it started, not only on short-term coping.

Sessions tend to be reflective and practical. Sara asks clear questions, offers feedback, and helps people test small changes between sessions. She uses techniques drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness to calm reactivity and build clearer choices.

Many clients come wanting tools for better emotional control at home and work. Sara also supports people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, career stress, and transitions such as separation or caregiving burden. She addresses interpersonal problems like communication, boundaries, and control issues.

Her style suits people who are willing to look inward and try concrete steps outside sessions. Expect a mix of exploring why reactions happen and learning practical strategies to respond differently. English is used in sessions and international clients are accepted.

Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the online therapy options button.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Sara commonly uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness in her practice. Client-centered work means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's concerns to build understanding and trust. CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep anger and anxiety active. Mindfulness involves simple attention practices and grounding exercises to reduce reactivity and increase choice in the moment.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and what tends to trigger their strong emotions. That plan can change as progress is made or priorities shift.

The original biography does not list specific online session types, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy week easier and support brief check-ins between larger sessions. It can also allow people to practice calming skills in everyday settings and bring real examples from work or home into conversation.
