About Sally
Dr. Sally Goh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with ten years of experience. She draws on a background in community and addiction counseling and has worked with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, stress, substance concerns, and relationship issues. She also lists family of origin issues and attachment concerns among her areas of focus.
She adopts a relationship-focused, person-centered style. Sessions are practical and conversational. She helps clients notice how early family patterns affect current feelings, choices, and relationships. Conversations often include skills practice and problem-solving rather than long lectures.
Dr. Goh uses a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioral work and acceptance-based strategies. She also integrates attachment-focused ideas when helping people understand patterns that come from their upbringing. Sessions can include exercises to notice thoughts, try new behaviors, and practice communication skills.
Her background includes work in community settings and addiction counseling, and she has been involved in mentoring and training other counselors. That experience informs how she structures sessions and sets achievable steps for change.
Clients who are looking to address repeating family patterns, manage anxiety or anger, or rebuild after loss will find a straightforward, stepwise approach. The focus is on clear skills, assertiveness, boundary-setting, and reducing shame so people can move toward more confident decision-making.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in early relationships and how they shape current connections and fears. It can help with family of origin issues and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill practice, which can aid mood, sleep, and anger regulation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to test methods and adjust what is used based on goals and how someone responds. Clients can expect discussions about which techniques feel useful and clear reasons for trying a given exercise.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a break, or letting someone meet without needing to be on camera. Licensed professionals can still use the same ACT, attachment, and CBT techniques effectively through distance sessions when those formats are arranged.
