Counseling Style

Sarah is a dedicated and compassionate therapist with a strong commitment to helping individuals achieve mental wellness and personal growth. She believes in boosting client confidence and normalizing mental health issues. Sarah considers herself the GPS in the car of a client; while the client is driving their own treatment, she provides navigation through challenging times.
Sarah’s style of therapy is a mix of psychoeducation, CBT and DBT skills, psychoanalytic techniques, and empathetic listening. She uses an individualized approach, applying these skills as she sees fit for each client.

Experience

Sarah has experience in multiple areas of the mental health field. She began her career in hospital and residential settings. After completing her master’s degree, she worked in in-home therapy with children and families, and later with adults. She then transitioned to the outpatient setting and most recently worked in an inpatient psychiatric setting, assessing patients before their admission to the unit.
