Getting to know Sara E Ratliff
Hi, I’m Dr. Sara E. Ratliff, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker and board-approved clinical supervisor with over 16 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families thrive. I earned my Doctorate in Behavioral Health from Arizona State University and my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California, where I focused on children and families. I hold unrestricted clinical licenses in Illinois, Arizona, and Maryland (LCSW & LCSW-C), which allows me to work with clients across diverse communities.
Over the years, I’ve worked in a variety of settings-from supporting people overcoming substance use and reentry challenges, to guiding children and families through international adoption programs, to providing clinical care for Active Duty service members, retirees, and their families. My experience spans family systems, relationships, stress management, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, chronic medical conditions and personal growth.
I’m certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT), CBT for Insomnia, CBT for Pain, and several relationship and suicide-prevention programs. I integrate these approaches into a personalized plan that fits each client’s needs, considering emotional, social, and cultural factors.
As a native Spanish speaker and immigrant from Mexico, I understand the importance of cultural awareness in therapy. I aim to create a warm, welcoming space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. My goal is to help you heal from trauma, strengthen relationships, build self-worth, and achieve meaningful personal growth.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
