About Sally

LMFT Sally Hazard has been a licensed marriage and family therapist for 21 years and works from Nevada. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. She uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Internal Family Systems in her practice.

Sally practiced in Orlando, San Diego, and Reno. Her experience includes private practice, group homes, counseling agencies, work with foster children and teens, and the University of Nevada Reno counseling center. She notes familiarity with a range of life circumstances and cultural backgrounds from that work.

Her teletherapy practice is delivered only by remote sessions. She says EMDR can be adapted for teletherapy and that she also uses a modified sandtray method and some online games when appropriate. Those tools are offered alongside talk-based approaches like CBT and client-centered work.

In sessions she starts by listening to what matters most to the person. She helps identify patterns, test small changes, and use techniques that match each concern. Practical skills for anxiety and mood problems appear alongside trauma-focused methods when needed.

Sally has worked with college students and people who identify as neurodivergent, and she notes experience with diverse sexual preferences. People who want to begin are asked to complete an online questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How her clinical approaches translate to remote work

Client-Centered Therapy places emphasis on listening and the client’s own goals. In teletherapy this looks like the therapist reflecting what the person says, asking clarifying questions, and helping the person set practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that maintain distress and testing simple changes. Online sessions can include brief behavioral experiments, thought records, and homework checks to track progress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) adapts trauma processing techniques for remote delivery by using guided bilateral stimulation and structured sets; it is used for trauma-related symptoms when appropriate.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to try based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That decision can change over time as progress and responses to techniques become clear.

The biography indicates Sally provides teletherapy only, so confirm the exact session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let the therapist and client use digital tools like modified sandtray exercises or online games alongside talk-based methods to support learning and processing.
