Getting to know Sarah Bessette

My name is Sarah Bessette, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt. I work with clients to find practical solutions and tools for the challenges that arise. As we collaborate, we use goals to guide treatment and measure progress together. My approach is to meet clients where they are. I utilize cognitive strategies and tools (CBT) as well as neuroscience to develop a plan that is manageable for each individual. I focus on solutions that support what the client identifies as their desired outcome. I am experienced in working with a variety of anxiety disorders, PTSD, ADHD, and intellectual disabilities. I am trained in CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness techniques. I have worked with individuals, couples, families, and children on a wide range of issues. I strive to create a comfortable environment where each person feels heard, seen, and supported. I look forward to providing care and am constantly encouraged by the progress I see my clients making every day. I became a therapist after witnessing firsthand the power of accountability and support. I am truly passionate about this work and look forward to supporting individuals, couples, and families as they make changes that help them become the best version of themselves. I work with my clients to develop goals that feel relevant and measurable. Many people are unsure about what they want to work on in therapy, so these goals may take time to develop. I am here to support you along the way. During our initial session, I gather information and then collaborate with you to set meaningful goals.
