Getting to know Dr. Sarah Cunningham

Dr. Cunningham is a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise in treating trauma-related disorders, substance addiction/misuse, as well as depressive and anxiety-related disorders. She provides evidence-based care to teens, adults, and older adults that is culturally informed and collaborative. Her approach to therapy reflects a dedication to addressing health disparities and fostering recovery. Additionally, Dr. Cunningham offers testing services for diagnostic clarification, cognitive abilities, and neurodevelopmental disorders. My approach Dr. Cunningham uses cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, person-centered, mindfulness-based and family therapeutic approaches to support healing and personal growth. She emphasizes warmth, equity, empathy, and genuineness in her practice and is a champion for holistic mental health. My focus My ideal client population consists of individuals struggling with substance addiction/recovery from addiction, trauma-related concerns, and/or depressive and anxiety-related disorders. I also enjoy working with clients struggling with relational issues and emotional dysregulation due to life stressors. The goal of treatment for my ideal clients will be to overcome barriers to treatment, support personal growth, and improve quality of life. My communication style I enjoy direct and open communication with clients. I believe that communication should always be kind, respectful, and supportive of personal growth. My journey to mental healthcare I was inspired to become a psychologist when I became aware of environmental injustice and health disparities in various minority communities. On a personal level, I show the negative impact of those disparities on the mental well-being of people I knew, so I was compelled to take action and be of service. My goals for you I help clients evaluate their needs and determine what resources are at their disposal to fulfill those needs.
