Sara McGann, LPC
Licensed in: Oregon, Texas
I became a therapist because of my own experiences with not being seen or heard during a challenging childhood. That experience motivated me to become someone who truly listens and supports others through their struggles. Seeing the progress my clients make—both in small steps and significant breakthroughs—continues to inspire and energize me every day.
About Me
I earned my Master’s in Counseling from UT Southwestern Medical Center in 2019 and have since dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate the challenges of brain injuries, adjustment to disability, complex medical diagnoses, and depression. My approach integrates evidence-based modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based practices. I also incorporate Motivational Interviewing and Yoga Therapy to foster healing and resilience. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients feel empowered to explore, grow, and reclaim their strength.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Headlight accept insurance?
Yes, Headlight accepts most major insurances such as Aetna, Kaiser, Magellan, Anthem and more. To confirm we accept your insurance, please call 800-930-0803.
What is the difference between a Therapist and a Prescriber?
Therapy, often provided by psychologists, social workers, or counselors, involves talking through emotional and psychological challenges to gain insight and develop coping strategies. Whereas, psychiatry, typically led by medical doctors, focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues using medication alongside therapy when necessary. While therapy emphasizes conversation and behavioral strategies, psychiatry integrates medication management to address biochemical imbalances in mental health conditions.
How much will my appointment cost?

Do Headlight providers offer telehealth visits?
Absolutely, all our providers offer telehealth visits so that you can get care from the comfort of your own home.
Can I see both a Therapist and Prescriber?
Yes. Seeing both a Therapist and Prescriber is incredibly common and can lead to better results. Talk with your provider and discuss if combining Therapy and Medication Management makes sense for you.
What can I expect in my first appointment?
During your first session you will meet with a licensed professional to discuss your medical history, current feelings and relevant life factors. From there, you and your provider will work together to create a personalized treatment plan. If you don’t feel like your provider is a good fit, please let your provider know. They can help transfer you to a new provider that might be a better fit for you.
