My name is Sarah Williams, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Connecticut and New York. I received my Masters in Social Work from Boston College in 2009.

Through a psychodynamic psychotherapy approach, I strive to provide a warm and open environment that promotes curiosity and growth. Seeking therapy takes real courage. Relationships change, self-esteem wavers, bodies transform, unforeseen social and cultural events occur that place us in uncharted waters, and life turns inexplicably uncertain. Whatever the reason, therapy is a unique opportunity to examine internal and relational conflicts, tease out unhelpful thoughts and deepen your understanding of yourself in ways that foster empowerment, vitality, and creativity.

My style as a psychotherapist is supportive, empathic, and nonjudgmental.

My goal is to help the people I work with achieve meaningful and lasting change that improves the quality of their lives.
