Sara Diehl Barr

Sara Diehl Barr is a dedicated pre-licensed professional with a Master's degree and certification as a drug and alcohol counselor (CADC). Recognizing the challenges that come with seeking counseling, she empathizes with the stigma that can deter individuals from pursuing the help they deserve. Sara is committed to ensuring that each client feels comfortable during their transition into treatment. She understands that everyone has unique concerns, strengths, and experiences, and she tailors her approach to meet their individual needs. Her therapeutic methods draw upon a blend of various theories, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Jungian techniques, and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). Emphasizing a strengths-based approach, she focuses on individual capabilities rather than solely on diagnoses, empowering clients to feel a heightened sense of self-worth and explore multiple options in their treatment journey. Currently, Sara serves as the program manager for the Livengrin Foundation in Lehigh Valley, where a variety of services are offered to support those struggling with substance use and mental health disorders, including Partial Hospitalization programs, Intensive Outpatient Programs, and standard outpatient options.
