Sarah Frost, Ph.D.
I am a licensed psychologist and have been with Counseling Services Inc for over six years. I work with adults and teenage clients. I specialize in treating anxiety and depression. I also support people through adjusting to life changes. I serve clients in-person in Durham and offer telehealth across the state of North Carolina.
Do you worry about the future? Do you experience low self-esteem? Are you having trouble adapting to a life transition? I can work with you to help you build self-concept, maintain meaningful relationships, and reach goals. Together we can discover the root cause of the issue and then make changes to have a more intentional, healthy, and meaningful life.
I work with clients to increase understanding of their own self-awareness and patterns of behavior. As a therapist, I respond to each client based on their own unique needs and offer guidance with an open-mind. Therapy with me is a collaborative process. Clients will strengthen their ability to engage in self-examination and explore how the past impacts their current life. With this insight, clients can find clarity. My approach is called psychodynamic therapy.
What is psychodynamic therapy?
Psychodynamic therapy is “talk therapy.” The client discusses their thoughts, concerns, and celebrations in session. As the therapist, I ask questions to explore connections between the client’s past and their present suffering. Through the conversation and reflection, the client gains insight into their own choices and behaviors and then makes decisions to create lasting change in their own lives. The benefits of psychodynamic therapy include increased self-esteem, improved mood, and feeling more in control of decisions in life. These changes have a long-lasting impact on clients.
