“I'm sorry that I can only pick two from the list because others apply just as well. She is very warm, intelligent and open-minded too. She has helped me get better. Most of all, she makes me think! I would recommend Sarah to anyone who doesn't want answers put on a platter but rather wants to be challenged to make themselves better.”

Getting to know Sarah Rivard
Hello, and thank you for viewing my profile! I have been a licensed clinical social worker for over 10 years providing mental health services to adults, teens, and children. My primary areas of focus include depression, anxiety, infertility, and stress management.
I believe therapy should be engaging, supportive, and responsive. I use approaches that have been proven effective including cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness techniques.
I invite you to reach out to me to see if I am a good fit for your needs. Know that you are not alone in your feelings and help does exist. You have already taken the first step toward feeling better, and I commend you for it!
What should a new client know about working with you?
I work with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, or infertility-related issues. During our initial session, we will explore your current challenges and goals. We will create a plan together to achieve your goals. Most of my clients experience improved mood within six weeks and continued progress thereafter.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
