About Me
Sarah Bannon, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Rehabilitation and Human Performance at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Bannon received her doctorate in clinical psychology from Stony Brook University. She completed her predoctoral internship in clinical psychology in the Brain Health elective track of the Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School (MGH/HMS) predoctoral internship program. She then completed a one-year postdoctoral fellowship and transitioned to a Staff Psychologist role at the MGH/HMS Center for Health Outcomes and Interdisciplinary Research (CHOIR) and Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital.
Dr. Bannon has clinical and research expertise in couple and family psychology, rehabilitation medicine, and qualitative methods to inform intervention development. She currently has over 40 publications and has contributed to the development and delivery of patient-caregiver “dyadic” interventions for acute and chronic neurological conditions such as traumatic brain injury and stroke.
Her current research is focused on the development of a novel dyadic intervention for couples following dementia diagnoses using the NIH Stage Model for intervention development. Additionally, her prior work includes a focus on the development of novel mindfulness and acceptance based therapies in forensic and hospital settings, including a novel acceptance-based intervention for individuals convicted of domestic violence offenses, and a rapid access online Dialectical Behavior therapy intervention to address increased therapy needs in the early COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr. Bannon is currently accepting patients for individual, couples, and family therapies.
