“I can't sing Sari's praises loud enough - she is really phenomenal. She immediately puts you at ease, and works sensitively with you to identify your goals, and, most importantly, empowers YOU to meet them. Her style of therapy encourages independent growth, so that you won't find yourself still meeting her years down the road with no progress to show for it. She is an excellent listener. After years of trying all sorts of different therapy types, I could not be happier to have finally found Sari. Thanks to her fantastic approach, I'm already seeing remarkable progress and have developed skills that I can continue to use throughout my life. ”

Getting to know Sari Neave

**Please note, all sessions are private pay. I do not accept insurance. I can offer out-of-network benefits for only NYSHIP, Beacon, and GHI.** I have experience working with people from a wide variety of backgrounds and life stages. I welcome people of all racial identities, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, and religious affiliations. My work has included finding new ways to navigate anxiety, depression, emotional pain, trauma, psychedelic experiences, or learning to set boundaries in relationships and live life more intentionally and authentically. I am actively engaged in the psychedelic community and am passionate about the use of psychedelics and entheogenic plants to improve human health and overall well-being. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University and a Bachelor’s degree from Pennsylvania State University. Life is full of challenges and transitions, and my goal as a therapist is to ease those challenges by partnering with my clients to build on their strengths and deepen their perspectives. I like to provide clear guidance and explanations, compassionate confrontation, warmth, and a safe space for exploration, discovery, and healing.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I believe that each client is an expert of their own life with individual needs, goals, and a comfort level specific to them. There is not 'a one size fits all' therapeutic solution, rather a combination of therapeutic approaches that is tailored to each individual client. To begin, I'd like to spend 10-15 minutes chatting about what your needs are and if we might be a good match. You'll find me to be warm, non-judgmental, and welcoming. Take that chance and call me today- I look forward to hearing from you!

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Once you schedule an appointment, we will reach out to you within 24 hours. Please note, your appointment is not confirmed until we speak. Looking forward to connecting.

    Sari is, in short, a lifesaver. I was having issues with anxiety and confidence when I first met Sari. Because of her, I now have tools, coping mechanisms and have regained my sense of self-worth. In our weekly sessions, she created an atmosphere that was safe, inviting and genuine. She causes you to think deeply, recognize and vocalize thoughts you've kept to yourself and then unpack those thoughts and ideas. I'm beyond grateful for Sari, her skill and time we shared. I'll carry the tools and words she shared with me for the rest of my life.
    I wanted to write a testimonial, not because I had to but as a way to express my appreciation for Sari. She has done so much to help me. I have much more clarity and inner peace. My anxiety is gone and my only wish is that I started therapy sooner.
    Sari is by far the best therapist I have ever see and I have seen many. She has a down to earth approach that is not condescending or disconnected from my reality. She never gives the answers but is the best at asking the right questions in order for me to arrive at my own conclusions and truths. This review could not do her the proper just as I could not recommend her high enough.
    ari is a compassionate and insightful therapist. She helped me so much with my anxiety. I really appreciate the concrete tools and helping me cope better. I am grateful for her help!
    Sari is a wonderful practitioner who is sincerely dedicated to her clients. Knowledgeable, intuitive, and professional, she not only provides a safe, warm, and supportive environment, but is truly present and understanding during sessions. Working with Sari over the years has made significant impacts on my life especially during the most difficult moments. Genuine and committed to helping others heal, I am grateful to have come across her services. I look forward to our continued relationship. Highly recommend her services to anyone.
    Unbelievable, life changing and I cannot stress that enough! Sari is a gentle hearted, warm spirit that listens intently and walks alongside you in your journey. She cares deeply and has helped me develop lifelong tools to better take care of myself and cope with my anxiety and depression. I still apply everything she taught me to this day and have shared the wisdom with my friends. I do not recognize the person I was before I started working with her and am so proud of myself for that.
    I've had trouble finding good therapists in the past. Every time I speak with Sari, I'm learning new things about myself. She challenges me in a way that no therapist has and I always benefit from our sessions. I find it very easy to open up to her as she provides a comfortable, non-judgmental space and she's provided me with the tools needed for handling and integrating life's challenges. I would very highly recommend her as a therapist to anyone.
    Sari is my favorite therapist to date! She is understanding and patient yet firm. She will bring a new perspective into your life and help make you a better version of yourself.
    Sari is amazing! She is warm, insightful and gets it! She has been so helpful and effective in helping me. I cannot believe how much better I feel!
    Working with Sari Neave has really exceeded my expectations. She is hands down the greatest therapist I have found (and I have worked with many therapists in the past). She's warm, insightful, caring, and understanding and made me feel comfortable and supported. Her perspective and approach to therapy has changed my life and continues to help me find peace in my own personal journey. I felt comfortable right from the start, but never expected that I would be able to undergo the major transformation that I did with her help. I highly would recommend her to anyone!
