Sally Millsap

Much of her career has been in medical social work across four states, including hospital and rehab settings. She began in inpatient rehabilitation, counseling patients and their families after strokes, spinal cord injuries, and head injuries.

She later worked in high-risk obstetrics and neonatal intensive care, supporting pregnant people, parents of NICU babies, and families facing drug exposure, fetal loss, or adoption decisions. In California over the past decade she has worked at a childrens hospital on a Child Protection Team and co-facilitated a grief support group.

Sally often meets with parents of children who have chronic medical needs or who are navigating big life changes. She draws on several evidence-informed methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy, and adapts sessions to what a family needs right now. Her style is warm, straightforward, and focused on doable steps that reduce stress at home.

She works in English and accepts clients in California as well as international clients for remote work. Sally combines clinical experience with a long history of hands-on hospital practice to help families cope and move forward.
