Sarah Pastore, LCSW

Sarah  Pastore

My therapy style is flexible and creative. My work focuses on building new skills, celebrating your strengths and successes, and honoring your pain. I am not here to tell you how to live your life, but instead, to be your co-pilot as you pursue what is meaningful to you. I strive to foster self-compassion and empowerment as you build the life you want to live and let go of thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve you.

I draw from a variety of evidence-based practices including solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and narrative therapy. Additionally, I offer sand tray therapy, which shifts away from traditional talk-based methods to incorporate visual and symbolic communication styles. I welcome feedback from my clients so that I can adjust to meet your needs and continue to grow as a clinician.

All kinds of therapy require trust and respect to be effective. I look forward to earning yours.
