More about Sara

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LISW, LICSW, LCSW

Hi and welcome to Betterhelp! My name is Sara November and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with over 15 years of experience, based in NE Ohio. My work has focused on helping individuals overcome a wide array of issues in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I have worked with individuals and families struggling with depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and grief and loss. I have a special interest in working with individuals who are exploring behavioral change in conjuction with weight loss.

My passion is helping others to realize that with support, they have the power to overcome tremendous obstacles and to attain a better quality of life.

My approach to counselling is described as warm, empathic, and with a primary focus on tailoring treatment to each individual's needs. It's important to me that as the therapeutic relationship is built, we maintain an open dialog and constantly reevaluate efficacy. I believe in being consistent with therapy and tend to look for solutions that will provide lasting changes. Quick fixes are not something that I am interested in. I take an integrated approach.

Thank you for taking the step of coming to Betterhelp. I firmly believe that asking for help is one of the hardest things we can do! My hope is that we can work together to help you find lasting solutions!

About online counselling

Counselling without referrals.
No doctor referral required.
Convenient.
Virtual counselling sessions are a flexible alternative to in-person therapy.
Available now.
Counselling in as little as 48 hours. No waiting list and no calls to make.

Online counselling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Reviewed November 2020

Sarah is the best counselor I have ever had, in such a short time she has helped me grow as a person by validation, encouragement, accountability, and her expertise! I have grown more since starting counselling with Sarah in a few months than I have overall in the last 5 years. So grateful I gave this program a chance!
