About Sally
Dr. Sally Goh is a licensed professional counselor with ten years of clinical experience. She practices in Virginia and brings a relationship-focused, person-centered approach to sessions. Her work often centers on stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, addictions, and money and financial issues among other concerns.
She aims to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or stuck in painful patterns. Sessions focus on listening first, then taking small, practical steps forward. Dr. Goh draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-informed work to address coping skills, boundaries, and communication.
Her background includes community-based counseling and addiction work. She has also mentored and trained other mental health counselors. That experience shapes a practical style that blends skill-building with compassionate conversation.
In therapy she helps clients process trauma, build assertiveness, and set healthier boundaries. Work may include strategies for managing grief, sleep, anger, and caregiving stress. She also supports people working through career strain and issues tied to family of origin.
Clients can expect step-by-step planning tailored to their goals. Dr. Goh emphasizes using each person’s strengths to restore confidence and purpose. People who want direct, collaborative work on life changes, coping skills, or relationship patterns may find this approach useful.
Approaches that guide online work
Dr. Goh often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside Client-Centered methods. ACT helps people clarify their values and take small actions toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns that formed in early relationships and how those patterns show up now in trust and closeness. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience and uses empathetic listening to help people find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions are adjusted over time so techniques line up with what is working and what isn’t.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or offering options when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Licensed professionals can guide how to structure online work so it supports progress toward everyday goals like better sleep, stress management, or handling financial strain.
