Life can bring moments of deep loss, uncertainty, and emotional overwhelm, and it’s not always easy to navigate those experiences alone. Whether you’re dealing with grief, anxiety, or a major life transition, therapy can be a space where you begin to process what you’re going through and find a clearer path forward.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Washington and Idaho with a PhD in Social Welfare and over 30 years of experience in behavioral health. My background spans inpatient psychiatry, crisis services, and private practice, which allows me to support clients through a wide range of life challenges. I specialize in helping individuals navigate loss, emotional pain, and transitions in both their personal and professional lives. Clients should expect to feel heard and supported throughout our time together. I want my clients to feel safe and empowered during their time with me, and I feel privileged to help my clients achieve their goals and improve their lives.

Sarah Stewart

Therapist

Virtual • Idaho


Hi, I’m Sarah Stewart, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and founder of Pelorus Point — a practice dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions with clarity and confidence. I am licensed in Florida, Idaho, Utah, and North Dakota, and bring over 11 years of clinical experience working with adolescents, adults, and couples.

My background includes a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and ongoing doctoral studies in Psychology, where my research focuses on language, identity, and inclusive mental health practices. My approach to therapy is eclectic and collaborative, blending elements of psychodynamic, narrative, and mindfulness-based work to create a space that fits you rather than forcing you into a specific model.

I specialize in working with clients navigating ADHD, dissociative disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, gender identity exploration, religious trauma, and relationship issues. My style is direct, grounded, and compassionate — I’m not afraid to challenge unhelpful patterns, but I always do so with respect and curiosity.

At Pelorus Point, my mission is simple: to help you find your true north — to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and move toward a life that feels authentic and meaningful.
