About Sarah

Sarah Sifran-McClellan, LPC, holds licenses in Colorado and Oklahoma and has 14 years of practice experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction, ADHD, and life changes. She describes her work in straightforward terms: listening, clarifying goals, and teaching skills to manage emotions and behavior.

Sarah uses approaches that focus on relationships and skills. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early connections shape current patterns. She uses client-centered methods to keep the person's priorities central. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach concrete ways to change thinking and manage strong feelings.

In sessions she aims to be practical and direct. People can expect clear strategies for coping, structured skills practice, and time to talk through problems. She often includes motivational interviewing when needed to address change around substance use and habits.

Sarah has experience with adoption and foster care topics, attachment issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, body image, codependency, control and commitment issues, and family of origin problems. She also works with concerns related to divorce, domestic violence, disruptive mood dysregulation, and disaster-related stress.

Her approach is collaborative and goal-focused. She helps people set achievable steps and checks progress along the way. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session using the online booking flow.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on the ways early relationships shape how people relate now. Online sessions using this approach look at patterns in current relationships and practice new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In an online setting CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking, trying new behaviors, and tracking results between sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they will adjust the plan based on what helps and what feels manageable. Confirm the therapist's session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use video or phone options depending on bandwidth and comfort. Ask about the available session types during the matching process so arrangements match daily routines.
