Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Sarah, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 12 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families through life's challenges. I've worked in a variety of settings, including community mental health, crisis intervention, substance use treatment, and outpatient therapy. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, trauma, parenting concerns, and adolescent behavioral and emotional challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on creating a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and understood. Whether you're facing a difficult season or looking for personal growth, I'm here to help you move forward with confidence and resilience.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy works best when it feels like a partnership. My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based, with a focus on creating a space where you feel supported, understood, and comfortable being yourself. Together, we'll build on your strengths and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, and my goal is to help you feel comfortable and supported from the very first session. We'll spend time getting to know each other, exploring what's bringing you to therapy, and discussing what you'd like to achieve. I strive to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can feel heard and understood. My hope is that you'll leave our first meeting feeling more at ease, supported, and encouraged about the path ahead.
