Even on the best days, life can be pretty overwhelming. Finding the right therapist for yourself can be key to helping you get where you want to be in life. My name is Sara Braverman, LCSW and I want to help you unpack what is going on in your life. Everyone needs a person to confide in without judgement, with compassion and understanding. A living journal no one will ever read. Everybody needs a 'nobody'. A person who you can 'dump' all your troubles on and walk away feeling lighter. Tell me your struggles and let's work through them together in the hopes that you will be able to walk away feeling stronger.

Have you ever wondered why you think, feel, and act in the ways that you do? Are you interested in developing a greater understanding of yourself and learning strategies to help you feel better? If you answered ‘yes’ to either of these questions, you’re in the right place. Being curious about ourselves and others is a central focus of therapy. In gaining greater understanding and compassion for ourselves we can change our patterns of thinking, reduce distressing emotions, and interact in healthier ways with the world around us.

We specialize in Rumination-Focused ERP for OCD and anxiety disorders. This approach focuses on treating compulsive rumination, and provides a highly systematic yet gentler approach to exposure therapy. RF-ERP can be helpful to patients who have not made significant progress in other types of treatment, including individuals with Pure O or Sensorimotor OCD.

I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from Adelphi University. I am a very compassionate and empathetic person by nature and have always had a passion to help others. I have worked with children and families of all ages, specifically helping them navigate challenges that surfaced from being in the foster care system. I believe that every child deserves a safe, nurturing, and permanent family and home.

I offer treatment for a broad array of diagnostic categories that is centered on treating the whole person. Sessions often focus on behaviors, thoughts, feelings and ways of interacting that individuals repeat in spite of a wish to behave differently. Areas of expertise include individuals, (adults and teens) couples, families and groups. Our work together may include interpersonal and relationship issues at work, home and school. I specialize in grief and complicated grief as well as anxiety, anger, depression and other mood disorders.

Are you struggling with feelings of sadness or depression due to trauma or difficult life experiences? Perhaps you are dealing with overwhelming anxiety or difficulty in connecting in with your significant other? The core of treatment at Haven Counseling lies in the belief that happiness, resilience, and mental strength are within reach for every one of us. We work with clients to explore the roadblocks in reaching their goals: emotional, relational, vocational or otherwise. We offer services for children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to overcome challenges related to mental health concerns, relationships, and trauma.

The decision to begin therapy is an important step on your healing journey. By building partnerships that are founded on warmth, dignity, and non-judgment, I help clients grow in a way that is most aligned with their values. Together, we focus on promoting wellness by acknowledging the past, respecting the present, identifying goals for the future, and developing the skills needed to joyfully move in that direction. I use behavioral, exposure, cognitive, and acceptance-based approaches that are evidence-based.

I practice Holistic Psychology and am passionate about making evidence-based therapeutic practices accessible.
