About Sarah

Sarah Serfilippi is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing with four years of clinical experience in Pennsylvania. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, depression, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Sarah also works with concerns such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, codependency, and issues around illness or chronic pain.

Sarah works from the view that each person knows their own story. She uses that perspective to help people notice strengths they already have. Sessions are conversational and practical. She helps people name patterns and try small changes to move forward.

Her practice includes approaches like client-centered therapy, mindfulness, narrative work, and trauma-focused methods. In a session she may listen closely to how a problem shows up, introduce mindfulness skills to manage intense moments, or help rewrite difficult personal narratives that keep someone stuck. The focus is on usable strategies rather than long lectures.

People come to Sarah when they feel directionless after a life change, when relationships have become tense, or when day-to-day stress feels overwhelming. She supports work on body image, guilt and shame, control issues, and separation or divorce concerns. Her style is grounded and straightforward, aimed at practical steps people can use between sessions.

Sessions are conducted in English. She is licensed as an LPC in Arizona and Pennsylvania and works from that clinical background when planning care and setting goals with clients.

Approaches you may use in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps when someone needs a clearer sense of their own priorities and strengths. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and build steadier responses to stress. Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite harmful story lines into more useful ones.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift as goals change or as sessions reveal what techniques fit best.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and reduce travel time. Phone options can be useful when a quieter setting is needed or bandwidth is limited. Discuss format preferences during the initial matching questionnaire and the first session to plan practical arrangements.
