Sarah Feeley, LMSW
About me
Congratulations on making it this far! You have already taken the first steps to make a change, and I’m proud of you. My intent as your therapist is to provide a nonjudgemental and optimistic safe space. The plan is to work together on identifying and addressing your mental health concerns. I will meet you where you are at in your journey, and build from there. Life can be overwhelmingly difficult, and can sometimes even feel impossible to manage. We will work together to navigate these feelings, increase coping skills, and reduce symptoms utilizing a person-centered, and strengths-based perspective.
I am licensed in Michigan, and attended Wayne State University in Detroit for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees in social work. I have 6 years of professional experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, anger management, emotional dysregulation, & parenting issues. If you are struggling with any of these, I may be the right fit for you.
I utilize an eclectic approach including aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), & motivational interviewing. I also provide clients with resources and tools as we continue with your journey, as my ultimate goal as your therapist is to help you help yourself.

She is very professional. Listens well and helps guide you through difficult times, and gives examples of ways to reel yourself in and or slightly dissolve certain issues at hand. Has a very approachable and friendly personality, which makes it comfortable to speak with her regarding personal issues in Your life. I would recommend her to anybody that is seeking help as you won’t regret it. She is professional kind and will help with anything that she can.
