Sarah Ring, LMSW
Sarah Ring graduated with a master’s degree in social work from the University of Memphis and is working toward her license in clinical social work. She is also being trained in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT), which is an approach to therapy of maltreated children, developed by Dr. Bruce Perry, a leading expert in early childhood trauma.
Sarah mainly works with children and adolescents and utilizes a trauma-informed, person-centered, holistic approach. She also incorporates tools from the psychodynamic attachment-based theory and prioritizes developmentally appropriate methods. Sarah enjoys using creative means in therapy, including art and play therapy. She also has experience providing in-home therapy for adoptive families.
Sarah is passionate about helping individuals make meaning of the pain in their lives and work towards healing. She believes that God created us to be whole, flourishing people, and in the context of safe relationship, God’s light shines in the darkness to dispel the strongholds of shame and negative life patterns. Sarah desires to create a space where God’s healing is known.
In her free time, you’ll find Sarah cooking for her friends, baking sourdough bread, reading a book, or spending time outdoors with her husband and golden retriever, Dolly.
“Though the fig trees should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. God, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places.”
