Licensed Psychotherapist in New York, Licensed Counselor in Alabama, Nationally Registered Board Certified Art Therapist, Art Therapy Credentialed Supervisor

About Me

My approach is client-centered, strengths-based, identity affirming and trauma-informed. I provide talk therapy, art therapy, and group therapy for adults and young adults dealing with life changes, anxiety, relationship issues, body image concerns, and identity exploration.

My practice is rooted in compassion and curiosity, valuing a therapeutic relationship that is collaborative and honest. Though each session is geared toward the individual’s needs, I tend to use art therapy, internal family systems, supportive therapy, somatic awareness and mindfulness as interventions.

I am licensed in New York State as Creative Art Therapist (LCAT) and licensed in Alabama State as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I am registered nationally with the Art Therapy Credentials Board as Board-Certified Creative Arts Therapist (ATR-BC) and an Art Therapy Credentialed Supervisor (ATCS). I earned my Master’s of Arts in Art Therapy from New York University and have experience working in treatment centers, schools, and private practice settings with a wide-range of populations. I also have ten years of experience as a fiber artist and sculptor, which greatly influences my work as an art psychotherapist and supervisor.

Testimonials

  • I have worked with Sarah for two years, and when I first met with her I had no experience at all with therapy. Each week her support comes from her natural ability to bring genuine compassion and understanding to whatever topic I want to focus on, and I completely trust that I will never feel any judgement from her. In addition to her expertise in talk therapy, Sarah has remarkable skills using art therapy to connect creativity with processing and healing. The past two years have made me feel so much more connected with myself and my creative side, I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah’s services to anyone looking for support.

    Client testimonial

  • I've had the pleasure of working with Sarah in both an individual setting and as part of a group. In both settings she is warm, compassionate, and is somehow always able to weave together the cerebral and the physical, to bring us back into our bodies. In our individual work, I have felt so supported by Sarah and she's helped me work through a lot of anxiety, connect so many dots, and feel much more integrated. I feel so safe with her and able to acknowledge things that have previously felt more challenging to say out loud. In addition, she's an incredibly skilled group facilitator. She makes all of us feel seen and heard and keeps the group moving without feeling rushed. I am so glad to get to work with her and highly recommend her to anyone seeking thoughtful, friendly, forward-moving support.

    Client Testimonial

    Client testimonial

  • Sarah creates a space of curiosity and exploration of who I was becoming as a clinician in the field. She supported me through various challenges while honoring my individualized approach and modality. As a clinician her approach and knowledge is something I won't ever forget.

  • Sarah is an exemplary supervisor. She creates a warm, comfortable, non judgemental space for her supervisees to be vulnerable and share their experiences. Sarah is a great resource for knowledge especially around the licensure process. I always felt that Sarah was genuinely concerned for both my wellbeing and that of my clients. Sarah was also always willing to spend time sharing her specialized knowledge and experiences which was extremely helpful for my own growth as a therapist. I highly recommend Sarah as a supervisor regardless if you are just starting out or a seasoned therapist!
