Why Sarah Kahan, LCSW chose to be in the helping profession

I chose to be in this helping profession because I have a deep passion for supporting people in enhancing their relationships—whether it's between parents and children, between spouses, or within themselves. I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate their emotional and physical intimacy, and I strive to assist them in healing from the traumas that stem from attachment wounds.

Additionally, I am committed to helping people in managing their anxiety more effectively. My goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of those I work with, helping them to foster healthier, more fulfilling connections and emotional well-being.

Sarah Kahan, LCSW's approach

My approach to counseling centers around building a strong therapeutic relationship, as I believe that a trusting and supportive connection is fundamental to effective therapy.

I utilize a range of modalities to cater to the diverse needs of my clients, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors, promoting healthier mental habits and emotional well-being.

I also employ psychodynamic approaches, particularly Emotion-Focused Therapy, to explore unconscious processes and past experiences, helping clients understand and resolve deep-seated emotional issues. In addition, I provide human sexuality counseling to support individuals and couples navigating sexual health and intimacy concerns, fostering a positive and open dialogue about their needs and desires. Recognizing the connection between mind and body, I incorporate somatic modalities that address physical sensations and bodily experiences, aiding in the release of trauma and promoting holistic healing.

Finally, I use parts work, an approach that involves working with different aspects or "parts" of the self, to help clients achieve greater internal harmony and self-understanding. By integrating these diverse techniques, I strive to offer a personalized and effective therapeutic experience, empowering my clients to achieve their goals and enhance their overall well-being.

What you can expect from sessions with Sarah Kahan, LCSW

In our sessions, you can expect a humanistic approach to the therapeutic alliance. I strive to be relatable and approachable while bringing a high level of experience and training in various modalities to our work together. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you feel heard and understood. You can count on a personalized and empathetic approach, tailored to your unique needs and circumstances.

Whether we're working through cognitive-behavioral techniques, exploring psychodynamic insights, addressing somatic experiences, or navigating issues of human sexuality, I am committed to helping you achieve your therapeutic goals, and improve your relationships and overall well-being.
