Sarah Serfilippi , LPC

Sarah Serfilippi is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) authorized to practice in both Arizona and Pennsylvania, bringing four years of professional experience to her work. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and depression, drawing on a belief that each person is the expert of their own story and already possesses strengths that can guide change. Sarah approaches therapy with respect for the individual perspective, helping clients identify and use those strengths to move through difficult moments and toward a more fulfilling life.

She recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage, and she positions herself as a supportive, empowering presence during that process. Her aim is to walk alongside clients as they take initial steps and sustain progress, offering guidance and encouragement while honoring the client’s goals and pace. Sarah’s practice centers on collaboration and resilience building, focusing on practical steps that align with each person’s values and experiences.

Approach-Oriented Online Therapy and Support

Sarah integrates client-centered therapy, mindfulness therapy, and narrative therapy into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the client’s own perspective and choices, with the therapist offering empathy and support to help people clarify goals and build confidence - this approach is especially helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and navigating life changes.

Mindfulness therapy teaches tools for grounding attention and managing stress and anxiety by helping clients notice thoughts and sensations without judgment; it can reduce reactivity and improve coping in daily life. Narrative therapy focuses on how people interpret their experiences, helping clients reframe problematic stories and highlight strengths and values, which can be useful for depression, trauma recovery, and identity concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Sarah takes a collaborative stance to determine which methods best match a client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She works with clients to tailor sessions and adjust strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Sarah is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support, maintain momentum between sessions, and engage in therapy from locations that work best for each person.
