Hi, I’m Sarah McCallister, LPC, ECMH-E, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Early Childhood Family Specialist. I’m passionate about helping children, teens, parents, and families navigate life’s challenges in a way that feels safe, supportive, and empowering. In my practice, I focus on understanding the unique needs of each child and family, offering guidance and tools to strengthen relationships, manage emotions, and build resilience.
Where Healing and Growth Take Flight.
I work with families facing behavioral concerns, transitions, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and developmental questions, giving support that is practical, compassionate, and tailored to your situation. I believe that healing and growth happen best in a collaborative and judgment-free environment.
My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and equipped to create meaningful change in your life and in your family relationships. Whether you’re seeking support for your child, guidance as a parent, or strategies to manage family dynamics, I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I utilize an eclectic approach that is always strengths-based, trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, holistic, developmentally appropriate and tailored to each client's unique needs and desires.
