Sara Admire
She/Her
Licensed Therapist, MSW, LCSW
About
As someone who has struggled with OCD symptoms myself, I have a big heart and a real passion for this community. My approach to OCD therapy is laid-back, comfortable, open, and honest. I'm a compassionate, sympathetic, attentive listener. I enjoy providing people with positive encouragement while maintaining the ability to be firm and direct. The best part of my job is hearing my members say each day feels a little better than the day before. In addition to OCD therapy, I also focus on treating mood disorders, social phobias, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders.

I am so thankful to be working with Sara, and I am beyond grateful that NOCD paired us for treatment. Sara makes me feel understood, acknowledged, and less alone. I feel encouraged after each session and the plans we work through together are truly making a difference in the symptoms I experience. I feel hopeful that I am healing and gaining control of my life again, and I would not be making this progress and feeling human again without Sara. Thank you Sara ❤️
