Ms. Sarah Powers
Personal Statement:
Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m glad you’re here.
I began my career as a school counselor, and have worked in both elementary and high school settings with children and teens ages five and up. Here at Psych Choices, I see children and adolescents as well as adults and couples.
I specialize in trauma, anxiety, relationship/attachment issues, and behavioral concerns, and I enjoy working with people from a variety of backgrounds. I integrate play and art therapy techniques alongside humanistic and cognitive theories of counseling, including cognitive behavioral theory, attachment-based therapy, strength-based therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy. I also believe in the healing power of humor and love to laugh!
It is my goal that counseling feels like a collaborative and transparent process. In addition, I strive to create a warm, inviting, and non-judgmental space – I invite you to come exactly as you are. I look forward to working together and am honored to be a part of your journey.

"Excellent service, very professional."
"I appreciated the opportunity to schedule my appointment and fill out the intake paperwork online! That made this whole process significantly more pleasant. Thank you for making that system available for patients."
"I have been a patient at Psych Choices for almost 7 years now and I am very pleased on the treatment and the way the staff and doctors treat you with the utmost respect as a person. They do not just give you medication and send you on your way like some doctors. The doctors and staff genuinely care about you and keep your information private and secure. I would definitely recommend the doctors at Psych Choices to a person in need or if you would just like to talk about everyday stresses. They have great hours also so you do not have to miss work!"
