Hello ! I’m Sarah and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor. My education includes a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from UGA, and a Master’s degree in Counseling from Georgia State University. I have a diverse background with experience in all levels of care. I have a strong passion for helping others work past obstacles and improve their lives.
Talking about your feelings, thoughts, and experiences with anyone can be challenging, especially with a complete stranger. I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and judgement free space for you to reflect and navigate through the various seasons of your life.
What is your approach to therapy?Whether you have specific goals or simply need a listening ear, I utilize a variety of approaches to assist clients in accomplishing their goals and navigating difficult situations. I use a holistic and collaborative approach, providing encouragement, accountability, and direct feedback to assist clients with their individual needs. Some of my areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal communication skills.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?I hope to use my training and experience to help you overcome obstacles, identify your strengths, manage stress, and learn helpful coping skills to propel you forward. Like many things in life, therapy can be uncomfortable and scary at first, but I'd be honored to walk with you and encourage you along this journey.
Whether this is your first time in treatment or you are returning, I am happy that you are taking this important step towards self care.
I have been a therapist for over 25 years, both in the private outpatient setting as well as in community mental health and in home family/individual therapy. I grew up in North Carolina and graduated in 1989 with an undergraduate degree in Psychology. I graduated in 1993 with my Masters of Education in Clinical Counseling from the The Citadel-Military College of South Carolina. For my licensure as a professional counselor, I was trained in community mental health and in home therapy. I have been licensed in Virginia, Texas and now Georgia.
I accept adolescents from ages 12 and up, as well as adults. I am knowledgeable in areas of anxiety, depression/mood disorders, relationship issues between parent and child, ADHD, anger mgmt, PTSD, grief, and trauma.
If your child is struggling with big feelings, hard behaviors, or school-related stress, you have found a safe place. I have worked alongside kids, teens, and their families since
2005, creating a playful, welcoming space where they can finally feel understood. I draw from play therapy, AutPlay, and creative approaches tailored to your child's
personality and developmental stage. I also partner with caregivers, teachers, and other supports so your child is not doing this work alone. My goal is to help them
understand themselves better, build confidence, and feel more in control of their emotions and choices.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling with depression, or dealing with ongoing stress in your relationships or family? You may feel stuck in the same patterns, emotionally drained, or unsure how to move forward. I work with individuals and families across Florida and Georgia who are navigating anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Together, we create a supportive space where you can understand what you’re experiencing and begin building a path toward clarity, stability, and healthier connections.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Savannah, GA
Searching for therapists in Savannah starts with knowing what kind of care may fit your needs. Some people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life transitions. Others may want a therapist with training in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to address.
In a smaller city like Savannah, the right local therapist may be nearby in areas such as the Historic District, Midtown, or around Forsyth Park, while virtual therapy can help expand your options across Georgia. Some people prefer an in-person office setting, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Savannah can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available in Savannah. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
