Hi there! Welcome to the first step in making a change in your life! My name is Sarah Hall and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Missouri. I have ten years of clinical experience working both in private practice and clinical agency settings. I have great experience working with children, teens, adults, and even families. I have worked with clients on a variety of issues, include anxiety, behavioral issues, grief, trauma, and mood disorders. I have worked with foster care youth, traumatized clients, non-verbal clients, and couples. I received my B.A. in psychology from the University of Missouri and my M.Ed. from Stephens College.
Personally, I am a mother, wife/partner, daughter, dog mom, and social worker full time. Better Help is my side hustle! I enjoy exercising and have a dog named Winston.
My therapeutic style is solution and present focused. I have experience using a variety of therapeutic approaches based on my client's preferences, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). My approach is to be warm, honest, and respectful with all of my clients, while respecting boundaries of my clients as well as multicultural differences.
I look forward to working with you and helping find joy in life!

I’ve been doing therapy w/ Sarah for about 3 years now. She’s been the best therapist I’ve ever had. I recommend her to everyone I know. Thank you, Sarah. You’re amazing!

Sarah is incredible! She is easy going and extremely knowledgable. She is very easy to talk to and I genuinely look forward to each of our sessions together. I am so grateful for her time and expertise in helping me navigate the challenges in my life and equip me with the resources I need to succeed.

Having worked with Sarah over a long period of just over 3 years, I’ve grown a lot from the experience of working with Sarah in therapy. I’ve found Sarah’s approach to Therapy incredibly rewarding. Even on some of the hardest sessions and shares, Sarah always has an infectious smile that always helps to cheer me up and remind me there is light at the end of the tunnel. Sarah’s approach I have always found to be welcoming. There’s nothing I feel I couldn’t share with her.
From the beginning of this journey, to where I am now. Sarah has been a great asset and resource to my own recovery, working towards better mental wellbeing and vitally setting clear boundaries.
Sarah has a wealth of self care tools to add to your support toolbox. Always able to pivot toward what I might need in that moment and suggest something relevant to what I’ve shared.
I got incredibly fortunate being matched with a therapist who understands and gets my needs. And a therapist who can communicate harder subjects in a non confrontational manner.
Sarah is awesome to work with.
