About Sara

Sara Millet is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience supporting people through anxiety, stress, trauma, and grief. She works with concerns around self-esteem and LGBT matters, and she helps people manage mood challenges and post-traumatic stress. Her manner is warm, often lightened with humor, and she aims to make difficult topics easier to talk about.

Sara uses narrative ideas to help people reframe painful stories and find different ways to describe their struggles.

Background and approach

She also draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how relationships shape feelings and reactions. Her client-centered stance puts the person’s priorities first and guides each conversation. In sessions she keeps language direct and practical.

People can expect clear steps for coping with panic, low mood, or overwhelming stress. She offers ways to handle guilt, shame, impulsivity, and isolation without jargon or long lectures. Sara has worked for a decade with issues related to loss, caregiver stress, and communication problems.

She assists clients who are sorting out life purpose, forgiveness, or complicated grief after abuse or other trauma. She treats social anxiety and phobia with attention to small, doable changes. Her LICSW reflects a clinical practice in Washington and she provides services in English.

Sara supports people who want therapy that balances real-world strategies with attention to personal story and relationships.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Sara directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

How narrative and relationship-focused work translates online

Sara often uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and retell their life stories in less painful ways. This approach looks at the stories a person lives by and finds alternative narratives that reduce shame or self-blame. Attachment-Based Therapy is another common strand in her work and focuses on how close relationships shape emotional patterns and reactions; it can be useful for people who notice repeated conflict or anxious responses around others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will listen to what matters most, try different ways of working, and check in about what feels helpful. Together clients and Sara decide which methods fit the person’s goals, needs, and preferences rather than assuming one fixed path.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions may be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or times when typing feels more manageable. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other daily demands.
