About Sabrina
Her approach is warm, interactive, and respectful. She uses straightforward talk, gentle questioning, and practical skills work so people learn tools they can use between sessions. Sabrina blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with acceptance-oriented and attachment-informed ideas to address thoughts, emotions, and patterns in relationships.
Her background includes work with refugees at resettlement agencies and several years providing individual and group therapy at a university counseling center. She has also worked in community agencies and ran a private practice serving immigrant and non-immigrant clients in Maryland. That experience shaped a focus on multicultural concerns and immigration-related stress.
Sabrina supports people facing parenting strain, grief, substance concerns, eating and body-image issues, and challenges tied to identity and discrimination. She also helps with ADHD-related struggles, compassion fatigue, and career or life-purpose doubts.
People who choose her can expect a blend of skill-building and reflective conversation. She encourages collaboration and honest feedback so therapy fits each person's needs. Sessions are offered in English and Tigrinya and provided through a variety of remote formats.
Approach and online care that fits your life
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world actions. It helps with anxiety, depression, worry, and patterns that fuel stress by teaching concrete skills to shift thinking and behavior.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice difficult inner experiences while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action. It can be useful for chronic worry, grief, and problems that persist despite repeated attempts to control feelings.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and trust. It can help people understand recurring relationship struggles and build clearer communication and emotional safety.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That choice is revisited as therapy progresses so the plan stays relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are helpful for face-to-face conversation and skills demonstrations. Phone sessions work well when lower bandwidth or movement is needed. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief reflections, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep continuity of care across life changes.
