Meet Rosaria (Sarah) Valentino, RCSWI
(Registered Clinical Social Work Intern)
Hi, I'm Rosaria, but everyone calls me Sarah. And I believe therapy can be a place to slow down, understand what's happening beneath the surface, and start feeling more intentional about how you want to live your life.
Anxiety, grief, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and major life changes can make it feel like you're just blindly reacting to whatever comes next. Oftentimes, what brings you to therapy is only the cover page of a much bigger story. My job isn't to tell you who you are or hand you a list of things to fix. It's to help you understand yourself with more compassion, interrupt patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and figure out what you want your life to look like from here.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, grief and loss, caregiver burnout, chronic illness, and life transitions. I also enjoy working with LGBTQ+ folks and adult adoptees, particularly those navigating questions of identity, belonging, relationships, or simply figuring out where they fit in the world. As an LGBTQ+ person and adoptee myself, I know how meaningful it can be to have a space where you don't have to explain or edit parts of yourself.
My style is warm, curious, collaborative, and human. Therapy can be meaningful without being stuffy. You don't have to have the whole story figured out before you begin. Bring what you have. We'll make sense of the rest together.
