Getting to know Sara Stuart

I’m Sara Stuart, LPC, CSAC, a licensed therapist and substance abuse counselor in Virginia Beach, VA. I provide evidence-based therapy for addiction, substance use, anxiety, depression, trauma, and co-occurring disorders. I take an eclectic, client-centered approach, creating a safe, non-judgmental space for adults navigating addiction or mental health challenges. My goal is to help clients explore learned behaviors, redefine wellness, and achieve lasting recovery and meaningful change. I offer in-person counseling in Virginia Beach and secure telehealth counseling for residents throughout Virginia.

What should a new client know about working with you?

With over a decade of experience in mental health and addiction counseling, I help adults explore how past experiences influence patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Using trauma-informed therapy, I support clients in developing self-awareness, emotional regulation, and healthier coping strategies to promote long-term recovery and mental wellness.
