Getting to know Sarah Kagin
Hello, my name is Sarah Kagin. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California offering teletherapy. I work with children, adolescents, families, and adults. I have experience addressing a myriad of challenges, specifically depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, grief/loss, career/identity issues, life adjustments, relational challenges, and parenting struggles.
I earned my Master?s in Counseling Psychology from California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt, which laid the foundation for my clinical skills and passion for mental health.
My approach to therapy is collaborative and client-centered. I am passionate about providing a safe space for clients to process current and past issues, begin to heal, and make progress in their lives. I utilize a variety of modalities depending on the needs of the client(s), including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy.
I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families in diverse settings such as community counseling clinics, college counseling centers, and elementary, middle, and high schools. I have worked with culturally diverse and LGBTQIAA populations and frequently treat depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, life transitions, relational challenges, and self-image/esteem.
You can expect a supportive, non-judgmental, and warm environment. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and a collaborative approach to create positive change. I tailor my methods for each client(s), as each individual is unique and presents with different circumstances. I hold space to address challenges impacting your life and explore patterns that may contribute to distress. I utilize clients? personal strengths to help them build insight and develop healthy coping skills.
The decision to become a therapist was born out of a strong desire to help others.
