About Sara
Sara Mitchell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, self-esteem struggles, and life changes. Sara also notes a focus on issues such as communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and workplace strain.
Sara favors plain conversation and practical steps over jargon. She can include faith in sessions when clients want that; she also works without spiritual content if that better fits the person. She mentions being comfortable with creative material, and may invite artwork, songs, or poems into discussions when clients bring them.
Her approach blends several methods to match the person and the problem. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help people clarify what matters to them and take meaningful action. Client-Centered Therapy guides the way she listens and responds, keeping the client's perspective central. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy are used for brief, goal-oriented work when people want fast, practical changes.
Sara has worked with young adults and people in marriages, and she describes experience with introverts and highly sensitive people. She brings a calm demeanor and straightforward talk to sessions. Her style aims to make difficult topics - like guilt, shame, or grief - easier to name and address.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing hard thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that fit a person's values. It can help when guilt or shame keeps someone stuck and they want clearer direction on what matters next.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and uses open listening to help them feel understood and to hear their own thoughts more clearly. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical changes and concrete steps that move life forward when quick adjustments are the goal.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sara will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That discussion often happens in the first sessions and can change as progress is made.
