About Sabrina
Sabrina Sahle is a licensed clinician based in Maryland who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, trauma, and relationship strain. She brings 13 years of experience supporting people with a wide range of concerns, including parenting stress, grief, addiction struggles, ADHD, and questions about identity and belonging. Sessions are offered in English and Tigrinya.
Sabrina trained in Educational Psychology and later earned graduate degrees in International Affairs and Social Work.
Background and approach
Her background includes trauma work with refugees, counseling students at a university center, and practice work on Maryland's Eastern Shore. She also ran a independent practice offering telehealth to immigrant and non-immigrant clients in Maryland. Her style is warm, direct, and interactive.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people name patterns, try different responses, and practice new skills between sessions. Clients can expect a mix of practical exercises and reflective discussion. Clinically she draws from cognitive behavioral tools, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work, emotionally-focused methods, and client-centered principles.
These approaches are used to address things like anger, communication problems, body image concerns, and traumatic stress. Sabrina’s work often focuses on helping people build awareness and lasting behavior changes. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and honest dialogue while tailoring strategies to each person’s situation.

Online therapy approaches and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and life changes where someone wants clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills training. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people shift how they relate to others, which can reduce conflict and improve emotional connection.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges with each person to choose or combine methods that fit. That collaboration helps shape session techniques and between-session assignments so they feel relevant and doable.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for different routines. Video works well for more in-depth dialogue and visual cues, phone fits shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth situations, and chat or text can be used for quick reflections or skill practice between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping a consistent therapeutic process.
