Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Los Gatos, CA

I believe therapy works best when it’s grounded in understanding who you are as a whole person. Everyone comes to therapy with their own story, background, and way of communicating, and I take time to really get to know each client as an individual. My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable being yourself, sharing openly, and feeling genuinely heard and supported as we work through what brought you to therapy.

I hold a Doctorate in Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I’ve been working as a therapist since 2015 and independently licensed since 2018. I primarily work with adults (18+) and support individuals navigating concerns such as anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, brief grief experiences, life transitions, and women’s issues.

Welcome! I’m Sarah Stewart, and I specialize in medication management for adults dealing with depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. My approach blends evidence-based care with compassion and collaboration.

I provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where we work together to understand your unique needs and goals.

I completed my training as a PMHNP in California and have experience in both emergency and outpatient mental health settings.

I look forward to working together to build a plan that supports your well-being!

My work centers queer and transgender preteens, teens, and adults, as well as individuals with current or past foster care involvement. My clients may be feeling overwhelmed, questioning their identity, or don't know where to start with therapy. I can support you by helping you notice patterns and build trust in your own process.

Have you ever heard the saying "the mind is a wonderful servant, but a terrible master?" Many people find themselves caught in patterns of thought that feel automatic and hard to step away from. Rather than trying to eliminate these thoughts, we change how you relate to them. This happens in two main ways. The first is through mindfulness. Not mindfulness as meditation or yoga, but as intentional awareness of your patterns of thinking and feeling. The second is values, meaning what matters most to you and what you want your life to stand for. These values serve as a compass to guide your decisions.

I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, and relationship challenges. If you're seeking more short-term coping, we can explore the patterns shaping your experiences to support lasting, meaningful change. My approach is trauma-informed and attachment focused - always guided by your goals. Therapy is a warm, collaborative space where we process experiences, strengthen communication, and build more secure, fulfilling relationships.

I am eclectic and open minded.I worked with woman's issues ,domestic violence, childhood trauma,Men relationship issues ,Adult Children of Alcoholics population, scapegoating in families, veterans issues and chronic illness.

Hi, I’m a clinical social worker who believes that therapy starts with feeling heard, understood, and accepted for who you are. I earned my Master of Social Work from The Ohio State University, and I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, and a genuine interest in getting to know the person behind the challenges that bring them to therapy.

I’m passionate about helping others recognize their strengths and step into their full potential. Whether through collaboration, mentorship, or encouragement, I aim to create spaces where people feel valued, capable, and inspired to act.
