About Sarah

Sarah Paulick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Florida with 17 years of clinical experience. She blends established talking therapies and trauma-informed methods to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with survivors of trauma and those navigating attachment wounds, and she draws on a variety of approaches to tailor care to each person's situation. Paulick emphasizes building resilience by strengthening internal resources and connecting to supportive external systems.

She offers evidence-informed interventions such as cognitive behavioral strategies and skills-based approaches alongside attachment-focused work to help clients break unhelpful patterns, address intimacy and relationship concerns, and manage emotional dysregulation.

Her practice also includes attention to issues like addiction, ADHD, body image, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue, and she frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at practical coping and meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and learning practical ways to accept difficult internal experiences while taking actions that align with what matters most; it is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and skill practice, which can support mood management, anxiety, and coping with daily challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, adjusting tools over time to find what best supports progress and daily functioning.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and needs. These options make it easier to access consistent care from Florida-licensed professionals while fitting therapy into work, family, or other responsibilities.
