Sarah Garlick

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Welcome! My name is Sarah Garlick and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California. I have experience working with clients from many different backgrounds both in program settings and in private practice. I graduated from Boston University, with a Master’s in Clinical Social Work in 1999.

I believe the first step to any successful therapy is creating a safe and supportive environment for the client. Within a trusting therapeutic relationship there is the opportunity for exploration and growth to occur. I strive to work collaboratively with my clients to overcome the barriers that keep them from having more fulfilling lives. I teach my clients concrete skills that they can use to deal with current issues, and challenges that may occur in the future. I provide compassionate solution-focused psychotherapy. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, but tailor my approach to best meet the needs of my clients. My areas and issues of special interest include:
– Insomnia – Anxiety – Parenting and Co-parenting – Building self confidence/self esteem
– Depression – Trauma recovery – Life transitions

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether virtual sessions can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been found to offer outcomes comparable to in-person care. A major advantage is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity of care. Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be better. Online therapy can be a practical and effective option for many people seeking support for everyday mental health concerns.
