My name is Sara A. Vazquez and I am a License Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) in the State of Maryland. I have a Masters of Social Work degree (MSW), a Masters of Education (M.Ed.) with a focus on Special Education (specifically Autism Spectrum Disorder), and a Bachelor of Social Work degree (BSW). I also hold the following certifications - Professional Crisis Management (PCM), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT) and Child Welfare. My work has focused primarily with children, adolescents and families through individual therapy, group therapy and case management with a variety of issues such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, ODD, behavior problems, social skills, transition, trauma, school bullying, and more. My intention is to work with you to identify needs as well as set realistic and "S.M.A.R.T" goals through a combination of intervention that feels most comfortable for you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Reviewed July 2022

Sara is a masterful constructor of a new consciousness (awareness) that fits a healthy reality if its necessary. Sara is highly intuitive and socially conscious so she can help a large demographic. She helps you to realize that situations don't need to change, but teaches an all inclusive point of view considering the narrative of others. Sara is safe. Sara is honest with compassion and you should hire her as a training consultant for therapists who aren’t doing so well. Sara is a life therapist for me.
