About Sarah
Sarah Knight is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Washington with 11 years of experience. She uses a person-centered, practical style to help people manage stress, mood problems, anxiety, and the ups and downs of parenting. Sessions focus on clear goals and steady steps forward rather than jargon or long lectures.
She combines attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioral tools to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are used to build moment-to-moment awareness and calm. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term goals and test small changes quickly. Sarah aims to create a down-to-earth relationship where clients feel heard and respected.
She believes each person is the expert on their life and helps them name what matters most. That can involve improving communication, managing grief, rebuilding self-esteem, or finding a new direction at midlife. Her background includes training in marriage and family therapy and more than a decade of clinical work.
The LMHC credential reflects licensure in Washington and ongoing clinical practice. Sarah draws on that experience when helping people cope with panic, trauma reactions, relationship struggles, or career stress. In sessions she uses practical exercises, thought records, and brief mindfulness practices.
Parents often seek her out for help with parenting stress and family-related concerns, while others come for support with depression, panic, or life transitions. Work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how past relationships shape current reactions. It helps people notice patterns in closeness, trust, and emotional responding so they can try new ways of connecting and regulating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives concrete tools to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about their goals and preferences and then choose techniques together. Sessions are collaborative and can shift over time as needs change, with the therapist checking in about what is helping and what could be adjusted.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, short coaching-style guidance, or keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options support flexible scheduling and ongoing progress with a licensed professional.
