About Sarah
Sarah Reik is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 23 years of experience. She works with adults carrying guilt, shame, stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, parenting concerns, and issues around self-worth and career. Sarah blends faith perspectives with practical counseling methods to address what feels heavy in day-to-day life.
She practices from a Biblically-based counseling stance and integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques. That means she may bring Scripture and faith resources into sessions alongside methods that have research support. Conversations tend to focus on concrete thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that keeps people stuck in guilt or shame.
In sessions she helps people talk through family of origin concerns, forgiveness questions, fatherhood and men’s issues, and midlife or career crossroads. She also supports people facing aging and end-of-life matters, grief, loneliness, and coping after disasters. The work often involves clarifying values, identifying unhelpful thinking, and building small, practical changes.
Sarah’s approach is collaborative. She listens, suggests strategies drawn from evidence-based practice, and includes faith-based reflection when clients want that. Sessions are meant to connect daily struggles back to personal goals and beliefs, rather than only examine symptoms.
She offers therapy in English and serves adults in Wisconsin. For people who want faith integrated with clinical approaches, she combines both in straightforward conversation and practical steps toward managing guilt and shame.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Sarah blends Biblically-based counseling with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; they help with anxiety, guilt, and patterns that keep someone feeling stuck. Brief, skills-focused strategies teach practical ways to manage stress, improve communication, and handle parenting or relationship conflicts.Finding the right mix of faith-based reflection and clinical methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to decide which approaches fit their goals, values, and day-to-day needs. That conversation helps shape session focus and homework between meetings.

Some formats let people check in quickly when schedules are tight, while others allow for longer conversations when more time is needed. The focus is on practical, achievable steps that can be used between sessions to address guilt, shame, and related concerns.
