Sara Weand, LPC, DBT Therapist — Counselor in Philadelphia, PA

I had the pleasure of interviewing Sara for a podcast episode about Borderline Personality Disorder and DBT, and I was incredibly impressed. As a DBT therapist, she explains complex topics like emotional dysregulation and relational patterns in a way that feels clear and compassionate. She brings both deep clinical knowledge and a warm, approachable presence. I’m grateful for the conversation and highly recommend her to anyone seeking thoughtful, skill-based support through DBT. You can find the episode of There's a Lesson in Here Somewhere on YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts.
