Our team includes a licensed clinical psychologist, licensed mental health counselors (LMHC), and licensed clinical social workers (LCSW). These dedicated social workers and licensed mental health professionals specialize in complex issues. While we do not have an LMFT on staff, our team excels at family and couples support.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a fellow clinician in Tampa, I’m consistently impressed by Dr. Ali Sager’s blend of clinical skill and genuine warmth. She builds strong, collaborative relationships that help clients feel seen, safe, and empowered. Her expertise in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders makes her a trusted referral for trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and pregnancy/postpartum concerns. When I refer to Dr. Sager, I know my clients will receive compassionate, evidence-based care.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Sager is wonderful and comfortable at first meeting. Her years of experience shine through and I felt incredibly safe talking with her without any judgement or worry. She helped me problem solve and reframe some negative thinking. We also did ART which was very helpful changing some past worries I had. I would recommend her to everyone. Her associates are also awesome and have similar open and relatable styles.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Sager is wonderful! As a therapist in the Tampa Bay Area, I refer to her and her practice often. Dr. Sager's insight and ability to articulate feedback in a non-judgment way is a rare find these days. She's able to treat all kinds of demographics because she is so understanding. She is highly regarded in her community and Tampa is lucky to have her. I can't recommend Dr. Sager enough!
