Sara Thomas, LSW
Sara Thomas is a Licensed Social Worker in Illinois. She has a Master of Social Work specializing in Children and Families from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Sara provides an empathetic and compassionate experience for active listening as the client navigates their inner thoughts and works through their understanding of their world. She is someone who is trauma informed in practice and approaches each client with a unique perspective depending on their abilities and needs. Sara meets clients where they are at and does not judge their history but rather uses that to challenge clients to have self-discoveries of personal triumphs and recognize opportunities for new growth. In her free time, Sara likes to travel and be outdoors as well as go on walks with her pug and spend time with family and friends.
