Getting to know Sara Williams

Hello, my name is Sara Williams. In 2011, I moved to Virginia and continued working as a behavior therapist with Universal Health Systems (UHS). In 2012, I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Hawai‘i Pacific University and started my supervision to become licensed. In 2015, I earned my License in Clinical Social Work and was asked to start as the clinical director for all mental health community-based services in Virginia for UHS. There, I added three more programs: outpatient therapy, crisis intervention, and crisis stabilization. In 2017, I was recruited by another facility within UHS, Newport News Behavioral Health, a residential program for youth with mental health disorders. In 2018, I was selected for the COO program and became the COO of Newport News Behavioral Health. In 2019, I started working with substance abuse and addiction until I began outpatient counseling. I am passionate about helping people who struggle with mental health challenges and have made it my life’s work to educate and empower individuals to meet their life goals.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a very goal oriented therapist. I will challenge you to meet those goals as well as face all obstacles that you face. I work with CBT and strength based theories to help you become the best version of yourself.

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.
