Sara Brinkerhoff, LCSW

Sara Brinkerhoff, LCSW

Psychotherapist
25 Commerce Dr, Ste 210, Cranford, NJ
I am an LCSW with several years of experience working with diverse populations, including children, adolescents, adults, and families, across various settings (school, outpatient, and partial care/intensive outpatient). I have supported individuals struggling with a range of diagnoses and issues, such as anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, mood disorders, ASD, grief and loss, and trauma. I emphasize the importance of the biopsychosocial model, understanding how all areas of life influence mental wellness, and I strive to help clients create balanced and meaningful lives. My approach is always person-centered and strengths-based, utilizing evidence-based modalities like DBT, CBT, and trauma-informed therapy, while also integrating somatic and attachment theories. I prioritize providing psychoeducation to empower clients. Life presents unexpected challenges, but I believe clients are more capable of overcoming them than they realize. My focus is to help them determine realistic and attainable goals, cultivate self-compassion, and develop lasting skills to improve their everyday lives.
