01About Sarah
Sarah Veale is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Tennessee with 22 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges related to family and parenting. She also supports people facing mood disorders, personality concerns, and life changes that feel overwhelming.
Sarah prefers a straightforward, practical approach in sessions. She listens first to understand what matters to each person. Then she works with them to build skills they can use between sessions.
Background and approach
Sessions often include discussion, skill practice, and simple strategies to try in daily life. Her background includes work in inpatient and residential settings, juvenile detention, outpatient independent practice, and a managed care company. That range of settings gave her experience with people dealing with substance concerns, developmental delays, self-injury, histories of abuse, and family conflict.
She has applied her skills across different stages of treatment and care. In therapy she uses methods drawn from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused work. That means sessions balance listening and validation with clear steps to try, ways to notice thoughts and feelings, and short-term goals you can measure.
Sarah emphasizes practical tools people can use right away. Her communication style is direct and collaborative. She checks messages regularly Sunday through Friday and aims to respond within about 24 hours.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to fit their needs.

How Sarah’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist follows your lead and creates space for you to describe what is most important. This approach helps when people need acceptance and a chance to make sense of their feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect moods. Sessions include straightforward tasks like noticing unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. This suits people who want concrete steps and measurable progress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan as you go. That collaborative process helps match techniques to what actually helps in your daily life.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you have face-to-face conversation when you want that interaction. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, practice between sessions, or when a shorter format fits your schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
