About Sarah
Sarah Bakura is a licensed counselor practicing in Wyoming. She holds LCPC and LPC credentials and has six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anger, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
Sarah aims to help clients build self-esteem and find practical ways to move forward. She uses a client-centered approach that puts the person's experience first. Sessions focus on listening deeply and helping people name their strengths.
Background and approach
That foundation helps when addressing patterns like anger, impulsivity, and trouble trusting others. Sarah also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing intense emotions.
Dialectical behavior therapy skills are introduced when people need tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Her work often addresses attachment and relationship patterns, including codependency, commitment worries, and communication problems. She supports people coping with bipolar disorder, disruptive mood challenges, dissociation, and the fallout from past abuse.
Practical skill building and steady support are priorities. Sessions are meant to be collaborative. Sarah encourages people to set small goals and practice new skills between meetings.
The focus is on realistic steps that fit everyday life and reduce stress over time.

How therapeutic approaches adapt to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people identify their own strengths. Online sessions give space for that work through conversation, guided reflection, and collaborative goal setting. CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and teaches practical exercises people can try between sessions. Online formats make it easy to review homework, track moods, and practice new skills in daily life. DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, offers concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills translate well to brief video coaching, phone check-ins, and message-based skill reminders.Sarah will work together with each person to choose an approach that fits their needs and goals. That process is collaborative: she listens to what matters, suggests options, and adjusts methods over time based on what helps. The plan can include skill practice, short-term exercises, or longer conversations about past experiences and current patterns.
Online therapy offers flexibility to fit a busy life. Video calls let people read facial cues and use visual exercises. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick reflections, skill reminders, and ongoing practice between scheduled sessions. These options help people use therapy in ways that match their routine and comfort.
