About Sarah
Sarah Bishop is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults struggling with anger as well as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, relationship and career concerns. Sarah lists ADHD, grief, bipolar mood concerns, sleeping problems, and LGBT-related issues among the matters she addresses.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She adapts talk and practical tools to the problem at hand instead of using jargon. Sessions focus on concrete skills, clearer thinking, and small changes that reduce reactive responses and daily strain.
Sarah draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Mindfulness practices are used when they suit a person’s goals for calmer attention.
Solution-focused methods show up in short-term planning and goal setting, useful for people who want faster relief or clearer next steps. Sarah has experience supporting people dealing with addictions, trauma, codependency, and complex medical or end-of-life situations.
Her style centers on collaboration and practical problem solving. She helps people notice patterns that lead to angry reactions and replace them with doable alternatives. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking.
How sessions work
How Sarah’s approaches translate to online work
Sarah commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in session. CBT involves identifying and testing thoughts that lead to anger and practicing different behaviors to change short-term outcomes. DBT focuses on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that help people respond differently in heated moments.She also draws on client-centered ideas, which mean sessions are led by the person’s goals and concerns, and solution-focused techniques to set small, concrete steps toward change. The therapist works collaboratively with each client to see which mix of approaches fits their goals and situation, revising the plan as needed rather than sticking to one method.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what format is offered. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into workdays, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Others prefer longer conversations that replicate office sessions. Discuss practical arrangements at first contact so sessions can match your schedule and whether you want skill practice, homework, or brief coaching between meetings.
