Dr. Tommie Saragas, LPCC

Dr. Tommie Saragas is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky with 16 years of experience helping adults through hard seasons. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, life transitions, and coaching. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people find clearer footing when life feels unstable.

She keeps sessions collaborative and practical. Dr. Saragas listens for strengths and patterns, then helps clients set small, achievable steps. Conversations often focus on coping strategies, clearer communication, and ways to regain energy and purpose. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Her work is informed by evidence-based therapeutic techniques, which she adapts to each person’s needs and pace. That means using approaches that research supports, while shaping them to match a client's goals and daily life. She balances symptom relief with exploring deeper questions about meaning and values.

Clients commonly bring concerns like blended family issues, caregiving stress, body image, divorce, infidelity, loneliness, and midlife crisis. Dr. Saragas also addresses workplace strain, guilt and shame, forgiveness, self-love, and women’s issues. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and create tools that fit real routines.

Reaching out is a practical first step. If someone is looking for steady guidance through grief, stress, or a midlife transition, she offers an open, judgment-free space to talk and to build forward movement.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options

Dr. Saragas works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques, adapting tools to each person's needs. One common approach she uses focuses on practical coping strategies to manage stress and anxiety. This involves identifying triggers, practicing brief behavioral changes, and building steady routines that reduce overwhelm.

Another frequent focus is meaning-centered work for life transitions and midlife questions. This type of work helps people clarify values, reconsider priorities, and set concrete next steps toward greater fulfillment. It is useful when someone feels stuck, unsure about purpose, or facing major life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, day-to-day habits, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together a plan is chosen and adjusted over time to fit the client's needs and pace.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, avoid travel time, and keep progress consistent during life transitions. It also allows shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed and can reduce barriers to scheduling around work or caregiving duties.
