Director of Operations/ Therapist

Sarah Barber (she/her/hers) is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Nutrition and Wellness Consultant with a passion for helping others. Sarah has been working and volunteering in clinical settings since she was a teenager. She graduated with a BSW and an MSSW from the University of Louisville. Upon graduation, Sarah began working in community mental health. Sarah enjoyed working with adults ages 18 and older with a variety of diagnosis including but not limited to; Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Anxiety, and Depression. However, Sarah specializes in helping those diagnosed with anxiety and depression as well as those with perinatal mental health needs. Although the time leading up to and following a baby’s birth is often joyful and exciting, the perinatal period can come with mental health challenges for both mothers and fathers. Sarah understands that many individuals struggle with emotional and behavioral dysregulation and that having a positive therapeutic relationship with their counselor is the first step towards recovery. Sarah works with individuals utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and other evidence-based interventions. She also understands the benefit of non-traditional approaches such as focusing on nutrition, exercise, and mindfulness activities.

Through her time working in both stroke and oncology programs, Sarah has also gained extensive experience working with individuals with chronic physical health conditions. Sarah understands how life changing a new physical health diagnosis can be and enjoys helping her clients process and cope with their new reality. Sarah specializes in using flexible client centered approaches, mindfulness-based strategies, and solution focused talk therapies to help individuals heal mind, body and spirit. Sarah firmly believes that what happens in counseling is only effective if you also put in the work in your everyday life. Sarah will help you create a plan and learn the skills you need to be your best, most complete self.
