Getting to know Sarah Lerch-Halliday

Hello! My name is Sarah Lerch-Halliday, and I’ve been a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor for 12 years. I provide therapy to people experiencing symptoms related to stress, relationships, depression, anxiety, and more. I work as a compassionate, trauma-informed therapist, using evidence-based coping strategies to help you improve your mental health. I utilize supportive therapy and motivational interviewing, actively listening and providing feedback. Together, we’ll find coping strategies that match your needs, often using cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and dialectical behavioral therapy. My approach is based on person-centered, existential, and acceptance and commitment therapy concepts. I work with teens, young adults, and adults facing challenges at school, work, relationships, recent loss, and life stressors. I specialize in treating symptoms of depression, anxiety (including social anxiety), anger, self-esteem, grief, and substance abuse. I’m a Registered Dual Disorder Professional (RDDP) and have worked with clients experiencing mild to severe substance abuse issues. I strive to be non-judgmental and collaborative, helping identify “stuck points” and ways to move toward growth and healing. I earned my Master’s in Community Counseling from Roosevelt University. I decided to become a therapist in my early 20s when I realized my calling to serve others. I initially worked as an intern with older adults with memory problems and loved bringing joy into our sessions. I then worked as a case manager in a residential psychiatric facility, followed by roles as a therapist in inpatient and outpatient mental health hospital settings. I’m passionate about my work and committed to continued personal growth and development.
