Dr. Sarah Helms, PhD

Dr. Sarah Helms, PhD

Psychologist
NC
Hi there, I'm Sarah! I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a PhD in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University. My goal is to help clients feel valued and supported as they navigate various stressors, challenges, and mental health concerns. I focus on each individual's unique needs to make therapy relevant, accessible, client-focused, and strengths-based. My approach Therapeutically, my goal is to meet clients right where they are. For some, that may involve brief sessions to target new coping strategies using Cognitive Behavioral or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. For others, we may focus on interpersonal connection, insight, and growth. My approach is always tailored to your specific goals and needs. My focus My clinical focus includes treatment for anxiety, depression, OCD, and trauma. I also work with clients navigating adjustment concerns and coping with major life stressors, grief, or other daily events requiring additional support. My communication style I am open, honest, and transparent. My goal is to create a space that feels warm, supportive, and inviting, while offering insight and accountability where clients may feel "stuck." I view therapy as a unique opportunity to practice communicating in ways you might not be able to with people in "real life." Therapy is a sacred space where clients should feel safe and respected in everything they share. My journey to mental healthcare I LOVE being a therapist! My job allows me to partner with people and collaborate to help them reach their goals. Therapy lets me walk alongside people from diverse backgrounds and often learn and grow through the process. I view my time with clients as sacred and am honored by the trust given to do this work. Seeing you succeed and grow is the best reinforcement that drives me.
