About me
Hello!
I am Sara Singleton. I am a clinically licensed bilingual (English/Spanish) social worker licensed in the state of Illinois and Wisconsin. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from Fordham University Graduate School of Social Service in New York City, where I am from. I have over 14 years experience in various parts of the field of social work: Child welfare advocacy, substance use disorders, crisis intervention, psychotherapy, sexual assault response advocacy and hospice/grief counseling. I have worked within a variety of settings with diverse individuals from various socio-economic, cultural, ethnic, educational and other diversified backgrounds, including LGBTQ. In my work as a clinician, I ensure my clients are free from judgement in a safe environment in which they can safely process their feelings while I help to guide them on their journey to healing and/or helping them reach their goals. My focal point is ALWAYS meeting my clients where they are at in life and not where I would like them to be as this is their journey not mine. I utilize a variety of combine clinical approaches that are individualized to each client's needs, all treatment plans are developed together and with the approval of the clients I work.
If you are ready to take the next step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to beginning our work together soon!
With care and attention to all that matters to you,
Sara

Sara is a joy to speak with and has a lovely sense of humor. She always made me feel comfortable and she tried to work around my schedule and work with the technical issues I had. I appreciate what she has done for me and while it is not the approach to therapy I think will best benefit me, she is the one who helped me realize that. I would highly suggest her for her personality and experience.
