Sirpa Cossaboon, LPC, LPC-MH

Sirpa Cossaboon is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She has a calm, straightforward manner and encourages honest conversation. Sirpa recognizes that starting therapy can feel daunting and aims to make that first step easier for those who reach out.

With ten years of practice, Sirpa focuses on practical ways to manage intense feelings and improve day-to-day functioning. She listens closely and works with clients to identify patterns that cause distress. Sessions emphasize clear, achievable steps rather than abstract theory.

Her approach draws on several therapy styles to meet different needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Attachment-based ideas help people understand relationship patterns and emotional responses.

Sirpa also incorporates acceptance and commitment methods to help clients clarify values and take meaningful action. Existential themes are used when people want to address life purpose and deeper questions. The mix of approaches is chosen to match each person's goals.

In sessions she aims to create a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be named and worked through. Conversations move at a pace that feels manageable, and homework or real-life experiments are used when helpful. Her style is collaborative, direct, and focused on what will make life more livable.

If someone is not sure where to start, Sirpa helps map out small first steps and practical tasks to build momentum toward clearer goals.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when hard feelings are present. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce symptoms like panic and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and helps people build different ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sirpa uses the first sessions to understand a person's goals and preferences and then suggests methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is reviewed.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as specific formats are not detailed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or reduce travel time on workdays. Licensed professionals can use these methods to guide focused skill practice, homework, and real-world experiments between meetings so the changes carry into everyday routines.
