Introduction

I specialize in supporting ambitious professionals with anxiety, chronic stress and trauma achieve peak performance. I use evidence-based tools to address the reasons underlying your self-doubt, burnout and imposter syndrome. My strategies are informed by neuroscience to increase mental flexibility and resilience. This powerful mind-body approach improves your ability to regulate your nervous system, lead effectively and make decisions under pressure. My clinical work experience includes Dialectical Behavior Therapy training with the LIDBT Group in NY and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing training with Dr. Francine Shapiro, the founder of EMDR. Additionally I am certified in EMDR through EMDRIA and trained in the Performance Enhancement protocol. I've assisted medical professionals and first responders during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in New York, financial executives who survived the terrorist attacks on 9/11 and survivors of childhood trauma. I offer telehealth services for clients in FL and NY. Please don't allow stress and burnout to interfere with your success. You can calmly and confidently reach your full potential. Call or click 'contact' on this secure website to request an appointment. I return most calls and inquiries within one business day. Your safety is very important to me. If you feel you are in danger, please call 911 directly or visit your local emergency room immediately. Accessibility & Usability Statement: I am committed to making my website accessible and usable for everyone, including individuals with disabilities. I continually strive to align our digital presence with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. Platform Limitations & Ongoing Efforts: My website is built on a third-party Electronic Health Record (EHR) platform, SimplePractice. While I manually configure content to maximize accessibility—including testing for keyboard navigation, visible focus indicators, and 200% browser zoom—the underlying code and certain automated color configurations are controlled entirely by SimplePractice. As a result, some elements may occasionally fall short of optimal contrast or technical WCAG formatting. I monitor these limitations closely and am actively working with SimplePractice support to encourage platform-level updates that resolve these remaining technical errors. Alternative Access & Assistance: If you experience any difficulty accessing our website or booking an appointment due to these platform limitations, I'm here to help. Please contact me directly so that I may assist you through alternative means: Phone: (561) 508-8809 Secure Email/Form: sarah.zimmerman@therapyemail.com
