Sarah Erwin

Registered Social Worker

Meet Sarah

My experiences and interests give me a unique understanding of…
  • What it’s like to be diagnosed with, live with, and navigate the mental, emotional, and systemic barriers associated with ADHD, based on my lived experience with neurodivergence.

  • The challenges and strengths that come with thinking and living "outside of the box," as someone who is both queer and neurodivergent.

  • The perspectives and needs of clients who don’t fit within conventional norms—such as queers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and individuals who feel “different” from their peers or from societal expectations.

My clients describe me using words like…
  • Warm

  • Easy to talk to

  • Friendly

  • Empathetic and understanding

  • Non-judgmental

Booking FAQ

Does Sarah offer direct billing with my insurance? Or how does payment work?

First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs and your card is charged, you’ll receive a PDF receipt by email with all the details you need to get reimbursed (therapist name, designation, license number, address, etc.). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage. We always recommend checking your coverage with your provider before booking.

How do I know if Sarah is a good fit?

You are the expert when it comes to knowing who’s the right fit. Watch the therapist’s video at the top of their profile and see whether the message and energy resonate. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut — booking a free consultation is a great first step to assess fit.

What if I see no available times to book a session?

If the therapist is listed as accepting clients and you see no available times, it’s likely they haven’t updated their availability (sorry about that!). In this case, you can to see what times they have available.
