A note from Sarah:
My mission is to guide people through loss and trauma toward acceptance and healing. Therapy isn't a space where we ""fix ourselves,"" but rather where we find ourselves in our pain and discover how strong we are in the process.
Going to therapy is self-empowerment. It means making a conscious decision to start exploring and accepting all parts of self so that you can feel empowered to live your best life. As a clinician, I meet each client where they are, honor their individuality and unique life experience, and co-create a space where they can feel—and heal—trauma, loss, and grief. I encourage clients to lead the conversation and ask questions to help them gain insight, reframe their perspectives, and achieve greater self-awareness.
By providing this safe container to unpack your lived experience, we’ll create coping strategies to find hope, overcome trauma, and move through grief.
As a therapist, my warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental approach and focus on integrative techniques creates a holistic balance for each individual. I can help you move through the grieving process and find personal growth, self-realization, and healing on the other side.
Every client is different. I explore which modalities are best for each person and use a strengths-based, multicultural, and integrative approach. I am open to going wherever the conversation leads, and will offer tools to support clients wherever they are now.
I work with people who are grieving. Grief can show up due to a variety of circumstances, including after a sexual assault, breakup, the loss of a job, or the death of a loved one. I also help clients struggling with identity and transitions, or who’ve had negative experiences impacting how they see themselves and the world. Sitting with difficult emotions after these events can be isolating. It's normal to feel lonely, scattered, anxious, depressed, or disconnected in the aftermath. Wherever you are on your journey, I'm here to support you along the way.
I guide people through loss and trauma toward acceptance and healing. Going to therapy means making a conscious decision to take charge of your destiny. As a clinician, I meet each client where they are, honor their individuality and unique life experience, and co-create a space where they can feel—and heal—trauma, loss, and grief.
Inviting deep reflection into your life can help you find acceptance. By creating a warm and non-judgmental container for you to process your experiences, I can help you find a new perspective, strength, and wisdom.
I use methods proven to help people process intense emotions and unhelpful thought patterns that come with grief, loss, and trauma, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I explore which modalities are best for each person and use a strengths-based, multicultural, and integrative approach. I also use expressive, mindful, psychoanalytic, and narrative techniques to help clients reflect on the past and stay present as they heal.
