About Sabrina

Sabrina Shupe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Utah with four years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, depression, and ADHD. She also supports concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and relationship communication problems.

Before entering private practice, she served in the military and later worked in community mental health. That work included time on a mobile crisis outreach team, where she supported people in urgent situations. Those roles shaped how she responds in sessions today - practical, direct, and focused on immediate needs.

Sabrina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and patterns that keep people stuck. Sessions typically involve talking through recent events, identifying unhelpful patterns, and practicing skills to manage feelings and behavior. She draws on both personal experience as a woman veteran and professional clinical work when helping people sort complicated problems.

Her approach pays attention to the facts of a person’s life - what happened, what keeps recurring, and what small changes might reduce guilt or shame. Outside of work she cares for a mini farm, plays volleyball, and spends time outdoors, which she says helps her stay grounded.

People who contact her complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and services are provided in English to clients in Utah.

How her approaches translate to online work

Sabrina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what helps in daily life. One common approach she uses is trauma-informed care, which involves noticing how past events affect current thoughts and feelings and practicing skills to reduce distress. Another frequent method is skills-based work for anxiety and ADHD, which breaks problems into manageable steps and teaches concrete strategies for attention, routines, and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She works with clients to figure out which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative planning can change over time as priorities shift or new challenges appear.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Many people find online therapy easier to fit into a day off work, a lunch break, or a moment between tasks. Video sessions let the therapist and client read visual cues, while shorter voice calls can work when bandwidth or attention is limited. The main benefit is being able to connect with a licensed professional from your routine without needing to travel, but check which session formats are offered before scheduling.
