About

A white cisgender queer Ashkenazi Jewish woman with long brown hair and bangs smiles brightly at the camera. She is wearing a brown shirt and thin gold teardrop shape earrings.

I am Sarah Eley, LICSW (she/her/hers), and I provide individual and relationship therapy. I also facilitate trainings and offer consultation, as well as clinical supervision. I provide assessments and letters of support for gender affirming procedures.

I am a white, cisgender, queer, Ashkenazi Jewish woman who is a first generation immigrant of socioeconomic class privilege. I grew up in the unceded land of Michigan.

I hold a MSW in Clinical Social Work from Smith College. Since becoming a Social Worker, I’ve had the fortune of working within queer and gender expansive communities. I’ve worked in community health and still partially do, and I’m currently also part of a group practice.

I dance, sew, get crafty. I also have a love for queer YA fiction.

I consider part of my responsibility as a therapist, social worker, and human to engage in my own personal reflections in relationship to systems of power, privilege and marginalization. I engage in regular professional consultation as a way to be accountable to the people I work with, think through questions forming along the way, and to support the therapy work to continue to grow and gain momentum. I’m an ongoing learner and believe that my learning does not end with my initial training.

I aim to continue practicing with humility and unlearning the harmful behavior of racism and colonization as I engage within professional relationships and personal life.

I am independently licensed in Massachusetts. And practice in Boston; the unceded land of the Massachusee (Massachusett), Wôpanâak (Wampanoag) First Nations Peoples and the Patuxet (Pawtucket), Neponset, Naumkeag, Pocasset & Pokanoket tribes.
