I am a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. My experience has been in the areas of depression, anxiety and loss; infertility, miscarriage and adoption issues; coping skills training for anger expression, self esteem, bullying and self injurious behaviors; individual, family and couples therapy; and support to children and adolescents with divorce issues.

Welcome! I work collaboratively with clients and provide a safe environment to explore and resolve beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors that stand in the way of living a fully conscious and authentic life. I am dedicated to identifying, understanding, and treating the core issues that impact clients and lead to psychological distress. I utilize trauma-informed treatments to help clients cope with difficult past experiences and work toward healthier futures. Specialties include working with anxiety, depression, substance use, co-occurring disorders, trauma, and PTSD.

My "ideal" client is an individual, couple or family who needs changes in their lives. Anyone with signs of distress, anxiety, anger issues or substance abuse may benefit from psychotherapy. Major life events which bring about change in a person's life are reasons people seek therapy. You do not need to be married to see a marriage and family therapist. I treat anyone of any age or sexual orientation who is motivated to make meaningful changes in their lives.

I believe that transformation is possible for every person and that each client is a unique individual who needs to be understood from their personal worldview. I can help you identify coping skills for difficulties you are having - addiction, anxiety, trauma, anger, depression, divorce; and strategies to help you become empowered and in touch with your feelings. I can help you resolve the problems for which you are seeking treatment but also to help you to identify your strengths that will allow you to experience happiness and peace within yourself and others, and to live a life that you envision!!

I bring to our therapeutic relationship over 25 years of experience working with children, teens, adults and families. As a therapist I am deeply invested in my clients’ unique stories. It is my goal to help them develop insight into the ways that their past and present intersect with their neurobiology while also uncovering the narrative they developed as a way to make sense of their experiences. This takes us to a space of understanding and connection which is often where change happens.

Welcome. Do you feel lost or without direction? Do you feel beaten down and overwhelmed? Do you do for everyone else but yourself? Do you long for just a little bit of "me" time, but feel guilty or undeserving? Could your relationships use a little work? Are people taking advantage of you? Do you have difficulty saying no? Do you experience periods of sadness or worry? Are you self-medicating to cope with your problems by over using alcohol, using other substances or engaging in self-defeating behaviors? Well you aren't alone and many feel the same.

I work with adults who have difficulties with depression, anxiety, phobias, marital and other relationship conflicts.I see individuals and couples.

Learn how to make changes. I use a variety of treatment modalities, such as psychodynamic, behavioral and family therapy, as needed.

Welcome! My name is Sadie Lukos and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about supporting adolescents and adults through the process of learning, accepting, and healing, in order to grow and evolve. Using insight and compassion, my focus is to collaborate with my clients to increase self awareness, challenge old patterns, and reduce problematic thinking, emotional difficulties, and maladaptive behavior.

Is past trauma something you think about often, that you find hard to talk about? It would be my honor to hold space for you to help you process all you have been through.
