About Judith

Judith Sachs is a Florida-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, family concerns, grief, and anger. Judith also focuses on issues such as abandonment, body image, communication problems, and family of origin issues.

Her approach is practical and straightforward. Sessions involve talking through current difficulties, identifying patterns that come from the family you grew up in, and practicing skills to respond differently. She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Jungian ideas, Client-Centered work, and elements of the Gottman Method.

Judith speaks from personal experience with long-term recovery from addiction and brings that perspective into work with people managing drug and alcohol problems. She mentions using the 12th step in her approach for clients who find that helpful. Conversations may include questions about coping strategies, triggers, and supports outside therapy.

Her practice is based in Florida and sessions are conducted in English. Before booking, clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details. Fees vary with location and are managed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, interested adults complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. That initial step helps match goals and plan next sessions.

How her approaches fit into online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-driven action. It helps with anxiety, stress, and making changes that matter to you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills to manage worry and unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and working at your pace, letting your concerns guide each session.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the process. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and together they will try methods that fit. That collaborative planning can include brief skill practice, talking through family patterns, or exercises to address addiction triggers.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy week, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and makes it easier to attend from a quieter place or during a lunch break. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and the best way to run sessions when you first connect.
