Judith Sachs, LCSW

Judith Sachs is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 20 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflicts, grief, and loss. She combines clinical training with lived experience to create a compassionate, respectful approach that adapts to each person’s needs. Her work emphasizes sensitivity and practical strategies while honoring the unique circumstances that bring someone to therapy.

Having navigated recovery from addiction for much of her adult life, she integrates that perspective into care for clients who are facing substance use challenges. She describes this part of her journey as an active resource in her practice and uses principles of recovery, including steps from the 12th step tradition, when appropriate and helpful to the individual.

Judith tailors conversations and treatment plans to reflect each client’s goals, preferences, and personal history. She draws on a range of clinical approaches to address issues such as abandonment, body image, chronic illness and pain, communication difficulties, control issues, divorce and separation, family of origin concerns, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, self-love, and women’s issues.

She often has two Shih Tzu companions named Yogi and Bear who may be present during in-person sessions and may be curious to meet new people online unless a client objects. Judith maintains a private practice and aims to accommodate scheduling preferences when possible. She is not currently accepting new clients.
