Sarah Raines

I am a licensed therapist in the state of North Carolina with 15 years of clinical experience. I specialize in working with individuals and couples facing a wide range of challenges, including stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, LGBTQ+ related concerns, and life transitions. I also have specific expertise in treating perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, including postpartum depression and anxiety. I hold a certification from Perinatal Support International (PSI) to work with the perinatal population and am a Certified Clinical Military Counselor (CCMC), which enables me to effectively support military service members, veterans, and their families. My therapeutic approach is integrative and evidence-based. I draw from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based interventions, Solution-Focused Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and the Gottman Method for couples therapy. Treatment is individualized and collaborative, always tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of each client. I strive to provide a therapeutic environment grounded in respect, cultural sensitivity, and clinical competence. Beginning therapy is a courageous step toward healing and growth, and I am honored to support you on that journey.
