Sara Wickizer

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I am a highly seasoned clinician with years of experience in both mental health care and substance use services. My professional journey began in the substance use field, sand a deep understanding of the co-occurring mental health challenges many individuals face.

My clinical experience includes providing outpatient individual therapy and supporting individuals experiencing acute psychosis in inpatient psychiatric settings. After gaining many years of clinical experience, I expanded into leadership roles, providing clinical supervision and program oversight while managing co-occurring programs across New Jersey. I am also passionate about building the next generation of clinicians and serve part-time as an adjunct professor. I earned my degrees from Rutgers University School of Social Work and Honors College, where I was a member of the Phi Alpha Honor Society and graduated summa cum laude.

I bring a diverse background and extensive knowledge to my clinical practice, having worked across a wide range of mental health and substance use settings. Over the years, I have gained experience with many different diagnoses, from anxiety and depression to trauma and co-occurring disorders. My expertise spans multiple evidence-based approaches, including ACT, CBT, DBT, SFT, trauma-informed care, person-centered therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and psychoanalytic techniques. This breadth allows me to tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs, strengths, and goals, ensuring a personalized, effective, and compassionate approach to care.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Trenton, NJ

Searching for therapists in Trenton starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for someone whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what to expect in sessions.

In a smaller city like Trenton, your local options may depend on office location, schedule, and current availability. Virtual appointments can expand your search across New Jersey while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near Trenton neighborhoods like Downtown, Chambersburg, or Old Mill Hill, or virtual sessions that fit your calendar. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, communication style, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Trenton 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 who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
