Hi there! I'm Sarah.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker servicing folks throughout the New York and New Jersey states. With 8 years of social work experience, I've developed and refined my approach to helping those in need of navigating life's most anxiety-producing moments or periods.

My therapy approach uses two core components, both assist you to: 1) make insights and enhance understanding of yourself and your challenges (the "whats" and the "whys"), and 2) identify the choices before you and collaborate on an action plan that fosters lasting change; together, we find clarity and forge those pathways.

I want folks to know that change is possible, even when we may be feeling stuck or helpless. I want to guide folks toward eliciting the power that is already inside of us all and use it to create a sustainable life with joy and freedom.

Sarah R. Cottone, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker servicing New York State for virtual therapy.

Therapy Services

I offer individual therapy services with approaches that draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) informed and solution-focused interventions, and systems theory and feminist therapy frameworks. I utilize a combination of these approaches tailored with your individual needs to help you with:

Anxiety

If you're struggling with social anxiety, low self-esteem, perfectionism, sport performance anxiety, or general anxiety across situations:

I use interventions to assist you with identifying useful tools to manage unpleasant emotions and deconstruct harmful thoughts and belief systems that may be perpetuating anxiety.

Life Transitions

If you're entering a new period of your life or finding you're having trouble adjusting to new situations:

I'll explore with you the nature of these changes and identify the elements playing a role in making the transitions difficult. I'll help you reduce the strain making these adjustments with life's expected or unexpected transitions.

Relationships

If you're often encountering conflict in your relationships with friends, family, or partners having leading to an emotional toll on your wellbeing:

I'll help you to explore these conflicts and deconstruct situations that keep coming up or are hard to navigate. I'll help you explore communication patterns, learn inter- and intrapersonal skills, or build assertiveness to navigate conflict with more ease.

Identity Exploration

If you're struggling with a part of your identity or looking for a greater understanding of what make you you:

I can help you explore the layers to identity, make sense of labels and language that work for you, or deconstruct the different systems that play a role in identity development, working toward a greater sense of comfort and self-confidence.
