About Sarah

Sarah Burey is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping parents and families navigate stressful times. She brings 16 years of experience in mental health and currently provides telehealth services from Texas. Sarah speaks plainly, listens without judgment, and aims to make therapy feel approachable for busy caregivers.

She uses practical approaches that fit each family's needs. Sessions often include looking at patterns between family members, learning new ways to handle strong emotions, and trying small changes that can make daily life easier.

Background and approach

Sarah can work with concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, parenting challenges, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress. She also has experience with communication problems, control issues, body image, and isolation.

Sarah draws on training in multiple methods and tailors sessions to what each person or family needs right now. Sarah is a Texas LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - and conducts sessions in English. She has personal experience as a parent, and that perspective informs her practical approach to family life.

Parents tell her they appreciate a calm, down-to-earth style and clear, manageable steps to try between sessions. Therapy often begins by identifying one or two immediate goals and building from there. Sarah supports people through changes such as fertility struggles, grief, and transitions related to adoption or blending households.

She focuses on small, steady progress that fits into family life.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current family patterns. Online sessions use conversation and targeted strategies to help caregivers notice and shift those patterns, which can reduce tension at home. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In telehealth sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing small behavior changes, and tracking progress between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will collaborate with each person or family to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. She adapts techniques as needs change so therapy stays practical and relevant for parenting and family challenges.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families. Video calls let therapists observe interactions and coach in the moment, while phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging let caregivers check in when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to keep momentum and follow through on new skills between appointments.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
