Sara Khaledpour

Sara Khaledpour is a licensed professional counselor holding LPC and LCPC credentials and practicing in Missouri. She brings 12 years of experience to sessions and focuses on practical support for everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and anger. Sara aims to make the first step toward change feel doable and supported.

Sara creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through difficult feelings and make small changes that add up. She listens closely and helps clients set clear, realistic goals. Sessions emphasize tools that people can use between meetings, such as simple thinking exercises, mindfulness practices, and motivational strategies.

Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns, from sleep and eating issues to career strain and coping with life changes. She also addresses trauma-related problems and relationship stress, focusing on how thoughts, habits, and values shape daily life. This practical lens helps people facing both short-term crises and longer-term patterns.

Sara uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on client-centered methods to keep conversations focused on the person, cognitive behavioral techniques to reshape thinking and behavior, and mindfulness to reduce reactivity. Motivational interviewing supports people who want help finding reasons to change.

Sessions are offered in English and Persian. Prospective clients are encouraged to use the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability. The subscription model in use can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Sara uses client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on each person's experience and priorities. This approach means conversations center on what matters most to the client and progress is guided by their goals.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. CBT provides clear exercises and homework that help with anxiety, low mood, anger, and habits related to addiction or sleep.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sara will work with people to pick methods that match their needs and preferences, adjusting techniques as goals evolve.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into busy days. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to keep continuity of care when life gets hectic.
