Great to meet you!

I’m Sara Stuart, LPC, CSAC, a licensed therapist and substance abuse counselor in Virginia Beach, VA. I provide evidence-based addiction and mental health counseling for adults, including therapy for substance use, alcohol and drug addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, and co-occurring disorders.

My approach to therapy

Using trauma-informed, client-centered approaches, I help clients develop emotional regulation, self-awareness, and healthier coping strategies to achieve long-term recovery and lasting wellness. I offer in-person sessions in Virginia Beach and secure telehealth throughout Virginia.

What you can expect from me

During your first session with me, you can expect a warm, supportive, and confidential environment. We will review your concerns, goals, and history, including addiction, mental health, and any co-occurring challenges. I’ll explain my trauma-informed, client-centered approach and discuss strategies to help you develop self-awareness, healthier coping skills, and practical tools for recovery and emotional wellness. This session is an opportunity to ask questions, build trust, and begin exploring meaningful change tailored to your unique needs.
