About Sara

Sara Bice is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in New York. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and addictions. She also supports clients dealing with family issues and coaching around life transitions. With 16 years of experience, Sara shapes sessions around each person's needs. She treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations and goals are tailored so therapy fits the client rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all plan. Her work often uses straightforward, practical methods. She draws on client-centered conversations to follow what matters most to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices are offered to help people manage stress and stay present during hard moments. Solution-Focused and Existential approaches are used to clarify values, set small goals, and find meaning in life changes. Clients can expect calm, focused sessions where the therapist listens and helps develop steps forward. Sara will collaborate on a plan and adjust it as needs change. She encourages people to take the next step when they are ready and recognizes starting therapy takes courage.

Approaches that guide online work and choice

This therapist uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the person’s lead and focus on what matters most in their life. That approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and shaping sessions around each person’s priorities so they feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to build practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. It often involves simple exercises between sessions to practice new ways of responding. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Plans can be adjusted over time as priorities change or progress is made. Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness exercises or CBT tools from wherever they are, which helps apply new skills to daily routines.
