  • About Sarah Yum

    I wholeheartedly believe psychotherapy is a vital part of our self-care as human beings. I believe in taking care of our mental health just as we take care of our physical health; which makes therapy an essential component for a healthy lifestyle. Whether you are coming to therapy as an individual or couple, I am honored to walk with you on this journey.

    When I am not practicing, I spend time maintaining my own self-care through exercise, travel and quality time with my family.

    Background

    Sarah is a native of Charlotte, North Carolina and is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in South Carolina (No. 6997) and North Carolina (No. 1777). She obtained her Master’s Degree in Charlotte upon completion of a three-year clinical psychotherapy program.

    Sarah has extensive training and experience working as a systemic psychotherapist. She specializes in working with couples and individuals struggling with infidelity, affair recovery, those navigating polyamory and ethical/consensual non-monogamy relationships and LGBTQIA+ relationships.

    My Values

    Trust

    My genuineness and understanding help create a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. 

    Change

    Change often occurs when we least expect it and I am here to help you navigate that change. 

    Collaboration

    I aim to work collaboratively with my clients to establish and reach their goals. 

    Your First Visit

    Before your first visit, I will ask that you fill out some paperwork so I can gain a better understanding of what’s going on in your life and for you to understand your rights as a client. This allows us to save a little bit of time during the first meeting so we can jump right into getting to know one another.

    It is normal to feel nervous about attending your first session. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with questions. The relationship between therapist and client is essential to your success in reaching your goals and understanding yourself in a deeper way. It is my job to create a safe and comfortable space for you to explore patterns and issues that may cause you to feel stuck. Together, we will make the determination if I am a good fit to walk with you on your journey.
