Sara Nett, Psy.D.

Sara Nett, Psy.D. A psychotherapy practice dedicated to using evidence-based practice to help you feel better, faster.

Dr. Sara Nett is a Clinical Psychologist who uses evidence-based psychotherapies to assist people experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or insomnia. Dr. Nett has specific expertise in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder. She works closely with sexual assault survivors and women experiencing perinatal distress, including postpartum depression and anxiety. Hello, and thank you for visiting my FaceBook page, where I intend to share information about topics that are often important to the people with whom I work. My work as a Clinical Psychologist began with the Veteran's Health Administration in 2007. For a decade, I worked closely with Veterans and Active Duty Service Members whose lives were affected by Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), following combat exposure and/or sexual assault that occurred during their military service. I received rigorous training by national experts in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and insomnia. My training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions allowed me to assist people in regaining control of their lives by teaching them to identify, recognize, and manage their intense emotions more effectively. The honor and privilege of assisting Veterans as they worked toward recovery was remarkable. My work was meaningful, and I was surrounded by inspiring, courageous people. In 2016, I decided to open a private practice, allowing me to share my training and expertise with the greater Baltimore community. More information about me and my practice can be found on my website: www.DrSaraNett.com.

You can be laser focused on controlling/avoiding/escaping your feelings, but there is a cost: living your life!

Sometimes, feeling better means learning how to feel your feelings better. See what I did there?!

If fear of nausea, vomit, and vomiting is filling you or someone you love with worry, fear, and dread—this post is for you!

Emetophobia (the fear of vomit or vomiting) often begins during childhood or adolescence but can occur anytime, including during the postpartum period and beyond.

It’s more common than you think.

It’s real. It’s treatable. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I’m Dr. Sara Nett, a psychologist at be. psychotherapy, and I specialize in helping mothers with anxiety, emetophobia, and contamination OCD.

Sometimes it can be really helpful to think about problems with anxiety—like phobias, OCD, and intrusive memories related to trauma—as problems rooted in escape and avoidance behaviors.

Once you start to think about the problem of anxiety as a problem of avoidance, effective treatment no longer has to center on reducing “symptoms” or eliminating the feeling of anxiety (guessing you’ve already tried that?); instead, the focus can shift to reducing escape and avoidance behaviors, in safe contexts, which opens doors to new learning about what you can handle and what is actually safe.

If you want to learn more about how you can reduce your avoidance and get your life back, reach out to us today! We’d love to talk with you about our approach.
