About Sara
Sara Cooley is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She supports those dealing with trauma, grief, panic, and issues around relationships and intimacy. Her approach is grounded and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel steadier in day-to-day life.
Sara draws on several practical methods to guide sessions. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps her clients spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.
In sessions she focuses on short-term coping skills and longer-term personal growth. Conversations cover coping strategies, communication habits, body image, boundaries, and patterns that stem from family of origin. The work often includes skill practice between meetings and checking what feels useful in real life.
Sara brings five years of clinical experience as an LCSW licensed in Colorado and Texas. That experience includes supporting people with mood disorders, addiction concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She aims to be direct and compassionate while helping clients make choices that match their values.
