About Sarah
Sarah Tedrick is an Oregon Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues. Sarah also works with people coping with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, anger, self-esteem challenges, and life changes related to separation or blended family situations.
Her approach is practical and relationship-focused. She draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to build a working relationship that guides collaborative problem solving. Sessions often include elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and motivational interviewing to address behavior patterns and readiness for change.
Sarah has personal and professional experience related to recovery from substance use, and she combines that perspective with years supporting adolescents, young adults, and adults. She describes parenting experience and time working with adolescents as part of what she brings to sessions. That background informs how she talks through parenting strain and family conflict with clients.
In a typical session Sarah helps people name the problem, try small changes, and notice what shifts. She focuses on clear steps, communication patterns, and practical coping tools. Conversations are collaborative and paced to fit what the client needs that week.
For people who want to begin, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment. The process uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships. It helps people notice how past bonds shape reactions in parenting and adult relationships and supports changes in how they connect and respond to others.Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's perspective. The therapist listens for what matters most, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s lead to set goals and next steps that feel manageable.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It breaks down situations, tests unhelpful thoughts, and tries small behavior experiments to reduce anxiety or improve mood.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sarah will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences rather than prescribing one single technique.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since specific online options are not listed in the profile. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit a session into a busy day, use a shorter check-in when needed, or choose a format that does not require video. Licensed professionals can adapt the approaches above to online appointments to focus on parenting challenges, relationship patterns, or coping with life transitions.
