Sarah Ward

[This is currently a virtual only practice offering video and phone sessions.] My first priority as a therapist is to restore hope. Hope for positive change, for relief from emotional suffering, for new possibilities and new abilities. I believe in each person's capacity for growth, and I know that we can all benefit from a little guidance and fresh perspective at times. If your symptoms or problems have started to overwhelm you, if you have been left reeling from a past or present trauma, or if you simply feel lost, misunderstood, or in doubt about what to do next - I would like to help you regain balance and keep moving forward.
We start by helping you find your strengths and determine your goals for therapy. From there, we add new skills, new ways of thinking, and new behavior patterns that can quickly produce the kinds of positive change you are seeking.
I specialize in using DBT - its focus is on learning how to live in the present moment, balance your mood, tolerate painful events with less suffering, reduce judgmental thoughts, and assert your needs to others while keeping your relationships intact. For the quickest response, please email or text me to make arrangements for your first appointment.
