Sarah DeSantis, LCSW
About Me
Welcome! I'm Sarah.
Whether you’re stuck in overthinking, struggling with low self-esteem, or navigating disordered eating, I’m here to help. I do my best work with overthinkers and self-doubters. Many of my clients are intelligent, driven, and perfectionistic, but find themselves second-guessing, overthinking decisions, or repeating patterns they want to change.
My approach combines helping you gain insight into the deeper issues at play while also using evidence-based therapy to help you get unstuck. Clients often describe me as an unconditional supporter who encourages self-compassion while also challenging the thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that are holding you back.
Areas of Focus
Anxiety & Panic Disorders
Chronic worry, social anxiety, intrusive thoughts, overthinking, and panic attacks.
Disordered Eating & Eating Disorders
Restriction, binge eating, emotional eating, body image distress, and rebuilding a healthier relationship with food.
Perfectionism & Self-Worth
High standards that feel impossible to meet, imposter syndrome, fear of failure, and difficulty feeling “good enough.”
Coping with Chronic Illness
Navigating the emotional toll of long-term medical conditions, health anxiety, and identity shifts.
Why Work With Me?
I care deeply about my clients' journeys and goals, and I genuinely want to help you achieve what brought you to therapy. I'm empathetic, analytical, and have over ten years of experience in all different types of mental health settings which allows me to bring extensive therapeutic knowledge into our sessions together. I intentionally maintain a smaller caseload so that your therapy experience feels tailored specifically to your needs.
​
Whether your anxiety feels constant and overwhelming or your relationship with food feels complicated and frustrating, you deserve care that is thoughtful, individualized, and grounded in experience.
