About Sarah Anne Hilfrank, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor providing telehealth therapy services in Georgia

I'm Sarah Anne Hilfrank, a Licensed Professional Counselor providing virtual therapy to adults in Georgia.

I was born and raised in Georgia, and although I now live in Wyoming, Georgia continues to be an important part of both my personal and professional life. I am grateful to be able to provide virtual counseling to clients throughout Georgia.

My goal as a therapist is to create a space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. I believe that therapy works best when it is collaborative and individualized, and I strive to meet each client where they are in their own process.

My Approach to Therapy

I work with adults experiencing a variety of mental health and life concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, codependency, relationship concerns, and self-esteem difficulties.

I use an integrated approach to therapy, incorporating different therapeutic approaches based on each client's individual needs and goals. My primary approaches include:

  • Person-centered or Rogerian therapy

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • Motivational interviewing

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I work collaboratively with clients to determine what is most helpful for them.

Experience

Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of counseling settings, including community-based counseling, substance abuse rehabilitation, court-mandated programs, and private practice.

Much of my clinical experience has involved working with substance use disorders and the people and families affected by addiction. I also have experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and other mental health challenges.

I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming clinician and strive to provide an inclusive and respectful therapeutic environment.

Why I Became a Therapist

I believe that people are capable of meaningful change, even when they feel stuck or uncertain about what comes next.

Therapy can provide a space to slow down, understand the patterns that are affecting your life, and begin making changes that align with the person you want to become. It is a privilege to support clients through that process.
