Sarah Chatt

Sarah Chatt

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


If something has felt off for a while, you're not imagining it — and you don't have to keep pushing through alone.

Maybe it's work stress, a relationship that's wearing on you, or just the relentless pace of life in New York. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: what you're feeling makes sense, and things can genuinely get better.

I'm Sarah, a licensed psychologist with a Psy.D. from Spalding University. I specialize in anxiety and depression, and I've worked across hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice — experiences that gave me a deep respect for how differently people cope, survive, and heal. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I won't treat you like a checklist.

Before graduate school, I gained experience in a supportive staff role in an outpatient clinic. Since earning my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I have worked in college counseling centers, in substance use treatment, and as a supervisor for counselors in training. I feel incredibly lucky to have seen many sides of what goes into treating an individual, and it helps me to maintain a holistic focus when it comes to counseling.
