A Little About Sarah

Sarah is a queer clinical social worker dedicated to supporting teens and individuals navigating complex trauma, mood disorders, family struggles, and grief/loss. She believes therapy is more than a space to work through pain. It’s also a space to cultivate shared joy, resilience, and survival. At the heart of her work is a deep commitment to cultivating community, supporting individuals and groups as they confront inequality and oppression. For Sarah, cultivating community also means breaking down the walls between therapy and the world outside. She believes that the work of healing is deeply intertwined with social change, and that mental health care can be a site of resistance, joy, and collective liberation. Sarah strives to create spaces of shared humanity where people feel less alone and more connected to themselves and each other.

Before becoming a therapist, Sarah worked as a middle school teacher in Boston Public Schools, where she developed a deep love for supporting adolescents and teens. That passion led her to transition into mental health care, driven by a desire to show up for young people and their families in more holistic, meaningful ways. Sarah’s therapeutic approach is grounded in intersectionality and identity. She draws from narrative therapy, empowering clients to reclaim their stories and challenge harmful societal narratives, alongside a range of trauma-informed practices that honor the profound ways trauma shapes our lives and relationships.

In her spare time, Sarah is a competitive spoken word poet. Currently, she is a teaching artist and youth poetry coach at the Northshore Alliance of Gay and Lesbian Youth and Mass Poetry. When she’s not writing or performing, Sarah loves traveling with her wife, spending time at local coffee shops with friends, or getting lost in a new astrology book. You can usually find her listening to a Spotify playlist full of Stevie Wonder, Chance the Rapper, or SZA, and she’s always exploring new paths in holistic healing.
