Sarah Tepfer, LMSW

Have you been feeling hopeless and disconnected? Do you feel like you put up a front to the outside world but on the inside you are unhappy and dissatisfied with life? Have you been struggling to keep up? Do you feel like no one understands what you are going through? Therapy can help. 

I know therapy can seem scary and vulnerable. Therefore, I make my office a safe and non- judgmental place to explore oneself, and any hardships that one is currently facing or have faced in the past. As your therapist I make it a top priority to earn your trust and build a strong therapeutic relationship. I empower my clients to realize their self worth and discover their innate resilience that allows them to get through the hardest of times. I believe in all my clients and instill the belief that change is possible no matter the situation.
