Sabrina Sahle, LCSW-C

Sabrina Sahle is a Licensed Certified Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) based in Maryland with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, and a wide range of related issues. She speaks English and Tigrinya and brings a calm, approachable presence to sessions.

Her style is warm, open, and interactive. She uses straightforward conversation, listening, and gentle reflection to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on practical steps and small changes clients can try between meetings.

Sabrina combines several approaches to fit each person's needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to clarify thoughts and behavior, acceptance and commitment ideas to build values-based action, and attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns. She also incorporates client-centered methods that emphasize listening and validation.

Her background includes work with refugees at resettlement agencies, counseling students at a university center, and providing services at a independent agency on Maryland's Eastern Shore. She also opened a independent practice and has experience offering telehealth to immigrant and non-immigrant clients in Maryland.

If someone is thinking about starting therapy, Sabrina asks them to consider what matters most to them and what they hope would change. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes make it hard to move forward. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings and behavior, and it can help with intimacy issues, communication problems, and family of origin concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress and teaches practical skills to change them, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and will help decide which methods to try. Clients and therapist collaborate on what feels most helpful, and approaches can be adjusted over time as needs change.

Confirm available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue care while living in Maryland or when relocating within the state. Ask about scheduling and subscription details when you complete the matching questionnaire.
