Sarah Libby, LCSW

Sarah Libby is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 24 years of experience. She practices in Florida and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and the everyday strains of parenting and family life. She often supports people facing career changes, grief, sleep problems, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Her work is practical and down-to-earth. She tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs. She values creativity in sessions and often uses art-based methods when helpful. Art is used to deepen work and make sessions more engaging.

Sarah has spent over two decades working with children, adolescents, and teens, and she also helps adults navigating life transitions and relationship challenges. She describes herself as respectful, sensitive, and compassionate, and she encourages people to bring what feels authentic to them into sessions.

In therapy she combines approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. These methods are used to build coping skills, clarify values, and improve communication patterns.

Starting therapy is framed as a courageous first step. Sarah invites people to explore goals together and to try creative ways of working when appropriate. Before scheduling, readers should confirm which session formats are currently offered.

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while handling painful thoughts. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and major life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior and can help with relationship patterns, parenting concerns, and healing from trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they will try approaches that match those needs and adjust as things change, keeping the process collaborative and goal-focused.

Because the biography notes a preference for creative methods like art, readers should confirm session formats before booking since some creative work is difficult to do by phone or chat. If online sessions are offered, they can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so people can try therapy around work or caregiving schedules. Check the listed session options to see what formats are available and which will support any creative elements you want to include.
