Sadie Lipman

Sadie Lipman

Therapist

Virtual • Iowa


Many of the people I work with don't look like they're struggling. They're responsible, dependable, insightful, and often the person others turn to for support. They've learned to cope by staying productive, keeping their emotions in check, and trying to get things "right." Those strategies probably helped them at one point. Left unmanaged, though, they can lead to anxiety, burnout, loneliness, or a feeling that life has become more about managing than actually living.

I'm especially passionate about helping people understand these patterns without shame. Together, we'll work toward a life that feels guided by your values rather than by fear, pressure, or the need to stay in control.

I'm Sadie Lipman. I have over 7 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adult clients in Florida, Virginia, and Iowa virtually. I would describe my therapy approach as warm, empowering, and reliable. This is therapy that is up-to-date and down-to-earth. As a therapist, I blend new‐age thinking with reliable, evidence‐based interventions.

Therapist

Virtual • Iowa


Hello and thank you for looking at my profile. My approach to providing therapy is to Keep. It. Simple.

I focus on the mind-body connection to help you understand why things feel the way they do, how our brain and body interpret certain feelings and experiences, and then what you can do to try to manage those feelings and make situations feel more comfortable and under control.

I specialize working with adolescents, but welcome all ages and genders. My main areas of clinical focus are in mood disorders such as depression and anxiety.

Hi! My name is Helen Roberts, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa. I’ve been counseling children, teens, adults, couples, and families for over 20 years - but in my experience, that’s not really what you want to know. What you really want to know is, can I help you? And is there hope for things to change for you? As a matter of fact, there is, and I hope you’ll give me an opportunity to take that journey towards healing and empowerment with you. We can change the direction of your life right now and give you hope and power again!
