Sarah Reik , LPC

Sarah Reik is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 23 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, and career stress. Sarah blends practical guidance with a faith-informed perspective when a client wants that element included.

Sarah combines Biblical values with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. In sessions she listens closely, helps people name what feels most pressing, and works with them to set small, achievable goals. She uses clear, concrete steps rather than jargon so people can try changes between appointments.

Her background includes long experience supporting grief and end-of-life concerns, coping after disasters, and fatherhood and men's issues. She also helps people dealing with loneliness, family of origin wounds, commitment and communication problems, and midlife transitions. Sarah describes hope and healing as central aims in her work.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She practices from Wisconsin and integrates spiritual beliefs when clients request that perspective alongside clinical approaches.

People who prefer a therapist who can bring both faith-based perspectives and research-informed techniques may find her style helpful. She encourages straightforward conversation and practical steps that fit a client's daily life, with attention to personal values and long-term goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Sarah blends faith-informed counseling with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. One common approach she uses focuses on practical problem-solving: identifying specific barriers, setting small goals, and testing changes in daily life to reduce stress and anxiety. This method helps when someone needs clear steps to manage overwhelm or workplace pressure.

Another frequent emphasis is grief and life transition work, which combines listening, meaning-making, and coping strategies to navigate loss, end-of-life concerns, or major life changes. That approach supports people facing bereavement, hospice-related decisions, or midlife shifts.

The right approach is often discovered together. She works collaboratively with each person to choose which techniques match their needs, values, and goals. Clients can expect an ongoing conversation about what helps and adjustments when something isn’t working.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can be a good shorter check-in, while messaging and chat make it easier to fit support into a busy day. These options make it simpler to maintain regular sessions and try therapeutic tools between meetings.
