Getting to know Sarah Kirkpatrick

Hi there, I'm Sarah! I am a licensed clinical social worker and a certified perinatal mental health clinician. I have over ten years of experience working with children and adults with a specialization in early childhood mental health, adjustment to new parenthood, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. My approach My approach to therapy is client-centered, warm, and relational. I draw from a blend of psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and attachment-based theories to determine a treatment approach that works best for my clients and their specific needs. My focus I am a certified perinatal mental health professional and am specialized in treating parents struggling with perinatal/postpartum mood and anxiety disorders. I am also experienced in treating anxiety, depression, life transitions/adjustments, and trauma. My communication style I aim to create a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space for all of my clients. My goal is to establish an environment where my clients feel safe to process their innermost thoughts while feeling seen and validated. My journey to mental healthcare I became drawn to this work as an undergraduate when I took my first psychology courses. As a sociology major, obtaining my graduate degree in social work felt like the right fit to combine my passion for social justice with mental health and wellbeing. My goals for you I take a collaborative approach with my clients when goal setting to make sure my clients feel that I understand their unique needs and to ensure that our work together is focused. My first session with you During the first session, my goal is to get to know my clients, introduce myself and how we will work together, explain what therapy entails, and address any questions or concerns they may have about treatment. My hope is to create a welcoming space where my clients feel heard and comfortable with moving forward.
