About Sarah
Sarah May is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, family concerns, low self-esteem, and life transitions. She also helps clients who struggle with attachment issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, social anxiety, and trauma-related reactions.
Her sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than jargon. She helps people notice patterns in how they relate to others and to themselves. She guides conversations about forgiveness, difficult feelings, and ways to cope when life shifts suddenly.
Sarah centers conversations around each person’s values and worldview. She encourages clients to name what matters and to weigh options against those values. This gives direction when guilt or shame feels confusing or overwhelming.
In sessions she works collaboratively, asking questions and offering exercises people can try between meetings. She pays attention to communication habits and attachment patterns that keep old struggles repeating. The work often includes practicing new ways of speaking and responding in everyday situations.
Many clients come for help with relationships or anxiety and find that addressing past hurts reduces the load of guilt and shame. Sarah supports people as they test new behaviors and track what changes. To begin, she asks clients to identify goals and then shapes sessions around those priorities.
How therapeutic approaches relate to online sessions
Sarah describes her work as using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people understand their patterns and practice new responses. One common approach focuses on attachment patterns and relational habits; this looks at how early relationships influence reactions now and helps people try different ways of connecting. Another method centers on skills for managing anxiety and stress, teaching concrete tools for calming reactions and improving day-to-day functioning. Both approaches aim to make thinking and behavior more flexible rather than relying on labels.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sarah works collaboratively to figure out which techniques match a person’s goals and preferences. She will discuss options, try methods in session, and adjust the plan based on what helps most in real life.
