Montaha Sarsour, Therapist
Montaha Sarsour, LPC, helps adolescents and young adults navigate life’s challenges through compassionate, culturally competent mental health care. Practicing in Wisconsin, she supports teens and adults ages 15 to 26 as they work through issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Whether someone is facing school-related stress, adjusting to adulthood, or managing complex emotions, Montaha provides a safe and affirming space to grow and heal. She offers both individual and family therapy through LifeStance Health, tailoring treatment to meet each client’s unique needs. Montaha is especially passionate about addressing generational trauma and school avoidance—two areas where she brings both deep understanding and targeted therapeutic strategies. She recognizes the lasting impact of intergenerational stress and systemic inequality and helps her clients untangle those roots to find relief, strength, and a renewed sense of identity. For adolescents struggling with school-related anxiety or behavioral concerns, Montaha partners with families to build trust, restore connection, and promote long-term success. Her clinical approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Exposure Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. This evidence-based framework allows her to support clients managing a variety of concerns, including ADHD, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. She is known for her warm yet straightforward style, creating an atmosphere where growth feels both manageable and meaningful. In addition to her core specialties, Montaha also offers support for a wide range of mental health conditions affecting teens and young adults in Wisconsin. Outside of her clinical work, Montaha is an advocate for social justice and human rights, which deeply informs her inclusive therapeutic practice. She enjoys exploring new restaurants, traveling, working out, binge-watching shows, and diving into her favorite Nintendo games.
