About Sarah
Sarah Tedrick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, and relationship issues. She brings seven years of counseling experience and practical life experience into sessions. Sarah writes and speaks about mental health and draws on a long personal recovery journey in her approach.
Sarah prefers a collaborative, warm style. She aims to build a clear, steady relationship where a parent can talk through daily struggles and parenting decisions.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and focused on real-life steps. She uses listening, reflection, and practical strategies rather than long academic explanations. Clinically, Sarah draws from attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
That mix helps with relationship patterns, changing unhelpful habits, and managing strong emotions. She adapts tools to what each person finds useful and realistic. Her background includes counseling and work with addiction and recovery, plus training in art therapy and drug and alcohol counseling.
Sarah lives and practices in Oregon and offers ways of working that suit busy parents. She encourages people to take a small first step toward support. Sarah aims to make therapy practical.
Together a person and she set short-term goals, try tools between sessions, and check what fits. The focus is on helping parents feel clearer, calmer, and more able to handle everyday family challenges.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how early connection styles shape current parenting and relationship habits. It aims to make interactions more predictable and safer so parents can respond differently to stress.Client-centered therapy centers on listening and respect. The therapist follows the person's pace, reflects concerns, and helps them find their own solutions. This approach is useful when someone needs acceptance and time to sort feelings without pressure.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods, and adjust based on what feels helpful. Together they decide which tools fit the client's needs and daily life.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy parents. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when schedules permit. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when seeing the screen is difficult. Live chat and text messaging make it easy to check in between sessions and to get short, focused support during the week. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while juggling family and work commitments.
