About Sarah
Sarah Reik is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 23 years of experience. She works with adults who are handling stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting pressures, and questions about self-worth. She also addresses career concerns and related life transitions.
Sarah integrates a Biblically-based perspective with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She explains how faith and scripture inform conversations, and she pairs that with practical counseling methods. Sessions are aimed at helping people talk through grief, parenting challenges, family of origin issues, and feelings of emptiness or shame.
Her practice includes work on fatherhood issues, commitment and communication problems, and midlife concerns. Sarah also assists people coping with aging, hospice and end-of-life matters, and recovery after natural or human-caused disasters. These topics are discussed in straightforward terms and practical steps are offered when appropriate.
She frames counseling around values important to each person and uses research-supported approaches to guide conversations. People can expect direct discussion of goals, time to reflect on faith-informed meaning, and strategies to manage everyday stressors. The emphasis is on clear next steps rather than abstract theory.
Sessions are conducted in English from Wisconsin. International clients are not accepted. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting through the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Sarah blends a faith-informed approach with research-supported counseling techniques. One common method she uses focuses on practical cognitive and behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thought patterns and day-to-day habits. These techniques help with anxiety, stress management, and breaking repetitive negative thinking.Another approach emphasizes grief and meaning work, combining conversation about faith and values with specific coping skills. This helps people processing loss, end-of-life planning, or feelings of emptiness. The goal is to balance practical skills with discussions about what gives life purpose.
Choosing an approach happens together. She will talk with each person about their goals, beliefs, and what feels most useful. Over several sessions she adjusts methods so they fit the person's needs and preferences rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

Licensed professionals can adapt talk-based work to remote formats while focusing on tools you can use in everyday life.
