Sierra Pelham is the Lead Functional Family Therapist with Bays Family Connections, Orlando. Sierra has been practicing FFT for nearly two years, but has been working with at risk youth and families since graduating from the University of Central Florida with her Masters in Social Work in 2020. Sierra’s extensive dedication and knowledge comes not only from years of practice and learning, but also from the lived experience of growing up as a youth on the other side of these services.

Sierra uses these experiences and knowledge to drive her work as a therapist and supervisor with the belief that all families are capable of change and that as providers, it is our responsibility to empower and encourage that change. Sierra resonates with the strength based, relational approach of functional family therapy and is grateful to work within a model that supports families and encourages positive connections with providers.
