My name is Sarah Nickerson and I was born and raised in upstate New York, before moving to Virginia in 2012. I received by BA in Psychology at SUNY New Paltz and my Masters in Social Work from the University at Buffalo. I currently hold my LCSW license. I have over 10 years of experience working with children and families with behavioral issues, trauma, anxiety, depression and anger issues. I have experience in the Foster Care System, Child Protection Services, Multisystemic Therapy, and Equine Therapy. I also come from a Christian background and add Christian values and a Christian lens to our sessions, if desired. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started.
