About Sarah Libby

I am licensed in Maine and Florida with 22 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, Depression, Trauma, family conflicts, parenting issues, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, ADHD and much more. I have a special passion for parenting challenges and children and adults with disabilities. I’ve worked with children, adolescents and teens as a specialty for more than 20 years. I encourage ways to explore creative processes, I strongly believe in creative therapy. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. I can offer using art within the context of treatment, the creative process is both fun and engages a depth in treatment, however, it is very difficult to use creativity in a therapeutic context using the phone or chat options. I’m excited to work together with you to meet your goals.
