My name is Sara and I graduated from Adelphi in 2016 with my MSW. Shortly after I obtained my license and began to work in Queens in a hospital doing inpatient psychiatric social work. I have worked with all populations on each of our specialty units, including adolescents, young and older adults, and aging. I spent most of my time working with individuals aged 18-62 presenting with a multitude of acute crises. I range from working with individuals experience first-break symptoms, all through chronic and treatment resistant symptoms. I have also held supervisory and administrative roles, in which I provided direct supervision and guidance for other healthcare professionals, primarily social workers. I also specialize in family dynamics and counseling, as well as mediation.
Navigating life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 7 years of experience helping individuals manage mental health and substance use concerns. My approach to therapy is warm, welcoming, client-centered, and often sprinkled with humor and optimism to make the journey feel a little lighter. I believe in meeting clients where they are, and I tailor my techniques to suit each person’s unique strengths and goals.
I work with children (ages 11+), adolescents, and adults, offering support across a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or struggling with substance use, I offer a safe and supportive space to explore your concerns and build meaningful change. I also work with individuals experiencing challenges such as domestic violence, anger management issues, adjustment disorders, and family or romantic relationship struggles. I have extensive experience working with mandated clients and those navigating probation or the criminal justice system.
I hold a Master's degree in Forensic Mental Health Counseling from John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a Bachelor's in Psychology from Siena College. My clinical work includes experience with alcohol, cannabis, opiate, and hallucinogen use disorders, as well as mood and personality disorders including bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder. I also support clients coping with grief and loss.
I can help you. Starting the process of self discovery can be a difficult task, making life changes can be equally challenging. Whether it be love, work or another difficult circumstance, I can help you gather the necessary tools to make you a happier and healthier person. I accept several insurances and can assist you on out of network coverage if needed. You are welcome to call me for a consultation and start the process of healing

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Binghamton
Searching for therapists in Binghamton starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare Binghamton therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy approach match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand what they focus on, how they describe their style, and what a first session may look like.
In a smaller city like Binghamton, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of New York. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. When narrowing your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and the concerns each therapist works with most often.
Therapy in Binghamton can be a significant expense 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 match your preferences and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, so you can review bios, compare availability, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
