Sarah Bentley, LPCC, LMHP

Sarah Bentley is an LPCC and LMHP practicing in New Mexico with ten years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, and stress. Sessions focus on understanding what led to current patterns and finding ways to change them.

She helps people identify the root experiences that influence their behavior and feelings. That often means talking through past wounds and how those memories show up in daily life. Sarah uses techniques aimed at reducing intense emotional reactions and shifting unhelpful beliefs.

Her work draws on several clinical approaches. She uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered work. These tools are used to address trauma, persistent anger, relationship problems, and addictive behaviors.

Sarah describes therapy as collaborative. She and the client map out patterns, try strategies to change thoughts and behavior, and practice new ways of responding. Sessions may include focused processing of past events, skill-building for managing strong emotions, and exercises to improve communication.

Her background includes ten years of clinical experience in New Mexico and licensure as an LPCC and an LMHP. She works in English and does not take international clients. People seeking help with anger, grief, parenting strain, or coping with life changes may find her approach practical and direct.
