About Sae

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of experience, based in Virginia and licensed in Maryland and Virginia. Sae Chichibu-Denny helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma, and abuse. She describes clients as the experts in their own stories and focuses on helping them use their strengths to address what’s challenging them.

She frames the first step toward change as an act of courage and offers steady support through that process. Sessions emphasize practical conversation about what is happening now. The work is goal-oriented and grounded in everyday language rather than clinical jargon.

In practice she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and anxiety symptoms, trauma-related concerns, and relationship strain. She helps people identify patterns that maintain distress and develops small, manageable steps to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Sae draws on her years of experience to tailor the pacing and focus to each person’s needs. She checks in about what is working and what should change as therapy progresses. Progress is tracked by concrete changes in behavior and mood rather than abstract theory.

People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The therapist uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time; costs vary with location.

How evidence-based approaches work in remote sessions

She uses commonly practiced evidence-based techniques to address symptoms and improve daily functioning. Cognitive-style approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking; these are useful for anxiety and low mood. Behavioral techniques emphasize small, concrete actions that change patterns over time, such as activity scheduling or graded exposure for anxiety.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that match the person’s goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist check progress together and change course when needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals adapt techniques to work well in remote appointments while focusing on practical steps that translate to everyday life.
