Therapist

I’m the therapist who tells the truth, laughs with you about the absurdity of being human, and holds you accountable — while somehow still feeling like a safe place to fall apart. I’m annoyingly enthusiastic about this job, and my fast-moving brain loves nothing more than figuring out why your patterns formed, not just how to ditch them. In our work together, you get a space that’s warm, honest, and performance-free — no need to have it all figured out before you walk in. We’ll make sense of the parts of you that feel confusing or long-ignored, with compassion, clarity, and a little humor.

Therapist

Couples who call me say they've drifted apart, feel more like roommates, and affection has stopped. Ineffective patterns of communication prevent them from reaching to each other. The magic in their relationship has died and the dance has ended. Individuals who call me say they are exhausted, discouraged, and dissatisfied with life. Old thoughts and behaviors continue to negatively impact who they are, what they want to accomplish, and their relationships. They too, have lost the meaning and magic of life. Healthy relationships, whether with yourself or others, are key to a happy, satisfying, life and keeping the magic going.

I believe that you are the expert in your own life. Oftentimes, people seek therapy as a way to cope with difficult environments, navigating a complex and rapidly changing world without the support they need to overcome obstacles. I have worked with disenfranchised folks most of my life - many impacted by systems involvement, lack of access to services, homelessness, and intimate partner violence. Past clients have shared they genuinely appreciate having a helping professional who meets them where they are at in life, supports them in achieving realistic goals, and keeps dignity, respect and honesty at the forefront of the work.

Sarah Stewart

Therapist

Virtual • North Dakota


Hi, I’m Sarah Stewart, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and founder of Pelorus Point — a practice dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions with clarity and confidence. I am licensed in Florida, Idaho, Utah, and North Dakota, and bring over 11 years of clinical experience working with adolescents, adults, and couples.

My background includes a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and ongoing doctoral studies in Psychology, where my research focuses on language, identity, and inclusive mental health practices. My approach to therapy is eclectic and collaborative, blending elements of psychodynamic, narrative, and mindfulness-based work to create a space that fits you rather than forcing you into a specific model.

I specialize in working with clients navigating ADHD, dissociative disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, gender identity exploration, religious trauma, and relationship issues. My style is direct, grounded, and compassionate — I’m not afraid to challenge unhelpful patterns, but I always do so with respect and curiosity.

At Pelorus Point, my mission is simple: to help you find your true north — to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and move toward a life that feels authentic and meaningful.

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 a Therapist in North Dakota

Searching for therapists in North Dakota starts with finding care that matches your needs, location, and insurance. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists and specialties can vary, so it helps to look for someone with experience related to your goals. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and training to see whether their background fits what you want from care.

Your location and schedule can also shape the right match. If you are looking for therapy in Fargo, Bismarck, Grand Forks, Minot, Williston, or Dickinson, you may find different levels of in-person availability depending on the area. Virtual appointments can give you more options, especially if local offices have limited openings or your schedule works better from home. As you compare therapists, check whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that work for you, and provide a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand how a therapist structures sessions and communicates before you book.

The cost of mental health care in North Dakota varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and coverage depends on your location and specific plan. You can browse therapist profiles, review availability, and book directly when you are ready.
