About Sarah
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who offers an integrated mind-body approach to psychotherapy. I obtained my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, and am currently a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. I am also affiliated with Northwestern Medicine in Chicago and Endeavor Health in Evanston. I hold active licenses in Illinois and Michigan, and have Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) granted by the PSYPACT Commission in over 40 states.
I believe that although life’s challenges can be stressful and times when we need the most support, they can also offer us the greatest opportunities for self-understanding and growth. My background in health psychology encourages an integration of both physical and psychological well-being, and an increased awareness of the factors that may influence each of those areas in our lives. In my practice, I offer psychotherapy for a variety of concerns including depression and anxiety as well as specialized treatment for those dealing with health concerns in themselves or a loved one. I seek to help clients identify strengths as well as new ways of coping and self-care to promote both physical and emotional healing. Another primary goal is helping clients develop strategies to reduce their experience of stress, which can exacerbate illness. Combining dynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and humanistic approaches, I strive to tailor treatment to most effectively meet the needs of each unique client. I am also happy to collaborate with other providers such as physicians, dieticians, psychiatrists or complementary/alternative care providers.
