About Sarah

Sarah Sivertsen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Indiana with nine years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and struggles with addictions. Sarah also supports individuals working on self-esteem, confidence, motivation, and coping with life changes.

She approaches work with respect for each person’s story and strengths. Sarah sees therapy as a collaborative process. She helps clients identify practical steps and build on what already works for them.

Background and approach

Sessions tend to focus on usable skills and realistic goals rather than abstract ideas. The tone is supportive and straightforward. In the room she listens for patterns that make daily life harder.

Together with the client she breaks those patterns into manageable pieces. That often means trying small changes, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed. Progress is paced to the client’s comfort and circumstances.

Sarah encourages people to notice their strengths when facing hard moments. She offers guidance while asking questions that help clients reflect and choose next steps. The aim is to increase confidence and improve coping skills for everyday life.

Her practice is suited to people who want practical tools and steady support during transitions. She helps clients move from feeling stuck toward clearer choices and calmer days. The overall approach is direct, encouraging, and grounded in real-life problem solving.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Sarah lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches and online flexibility

Sarah uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches coping tools for anxiety and stress, such as breathing, thought checks, and behavioral steps to reduce overwhelm. These techniques help people get through difficult moments and handle day-to-day pressures.

Another approach is goal-focused problem solving. This involves breaking larger problems into smaller steps, testing what works, and adjusting the plan. It is useful for motivation, low mood, and navigating life changes where clear next steps help restore momentum.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Sarah collaborates with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques so the work stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls let you see body language and run a fuller session, phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging make shorter check-ins and flexible communication possible. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, a break, or between other obligations.
