I am a board certified clinical neuropsychologist. My specialty is clinical & forensic neuropsychological evaluation across the lifespan. Assessment involves an in-depth understanding of the effects of neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions on brain functioning. The goal is to see you, not the disorder, & to understand how the condition affects you, determine intervention & treatment needs, & enhance your quality of life. Please note, this is an assessment service. I am not providing therapy though I will make appropriate & targeted recommendations based on the findings so that targeted treatment occurs.

Do you ever ask yourself why you react the way you do to certain situations? Are you feeling overwhelmed with everything that you are feeling? Do you feel like you have tried therapy before and nothing seems to be working? Do you feel hopeless and on the brink of giving up? I would like to tell you that not all hope is lost. If you are looking to find ways to address your concerns, find hope and meaning again, I am here to support you.

I specialize in providing support to individuals with Autism, neurodivergence, and those with anxiety, depression, and social difficulties.

I also conduct assessments for Autism in adults. In my practice, I employ a personalized and collaborative approach. Using a cognitive-behavioral framework, my aim is to help clients develop a deeper self-awareness and peace.

Therapy is a transformative process that helps us to better understand ourselves as we navigate the world around us. I am passionate about mental health advocacy and destigmatization.

I strive to help others make meaning of their lived experiences through integrative therapeutic techniques drawn from mainly gestalt, psychodynamic, narrative, and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches. My goal in our work together is to provide a safe, healing, and reflective space for you to feel energized on your journey for growth.

Hello!  I’m Sarah, a trained Mental Health Counselor, serving children, teens, and adults. I believe people have the amazing ability to heal their emotional wounds with the support of a caring person. At times, life is challenging for everyone though you are not alone. Sometimes, life challenges can interrupt our thoughts, feelings and behaviors in how we interact with family, friends and others in the community. I take a person-centered approach that empowers my clients to navigate life transitions with confidence. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we will work together to heal your symptoms in practical ways.

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.

Hello! I am a postdoctoral psychologist working with adults and older adolescents who are seeking relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety, loneliness, low self-esteem, compulsive thoughts and behaviors, or a sense of being disconnected from themselves or their bodies. They may wish to work through confusion about aspects of their identity, untangle from self-defeating interpersonal patterns, or heal from traumas ranging from physical and sexual abuse to invasive medical procedures. I have a special interest in women’s sexual health and wellness and can work with those interested in exploring this vital dimension of living.

When you decide to go to therapy, you are bringing your entire self, including intersectional identities, life history, and poignant relationships, to each session. I have the privilege to meet you, human to human, and witness just a small part of who you are in our time together. You are the expert of your own life and I am here to provide a compassionate and judgement free space where we can partner together to support your self-awareness, growth, and healing. I work with adult individuals only at this time, providing online video sessions.

When working with clients I believe in meeting them where they are and collaborating with them in both goal setting and on how to best achieve those goals. I am foremost a humanist in my approach to psychotherapy, deeply valuing the authentic meeting of two people who through the development of mutual trust, understanding and compassion can take on even the most difficult of challenges. I am passionate about viewing individuals and families through a holistic health lens and I incorporate that holistic/multi-systemic lens in all the work I do with clients.

I bring experience working with a broad range of individuals, from adolescents to older adults, including those who are seeking mental health treatment for the first time as well as those more familiar with the positive life changes that can be achieved through therapy. I have worked with patients experiencing a wide range of issues, such as depression and anxiety, major life transitions, grief and loss, work, family and relationship stress, complex trauma (abuse, neglect, exposure to violence) ,as well as those coping with severe mental illness, and addiction.

I work with couples and individuals in couples counseling and psychotherapy. My approach is collaborative, interactive, engaged, to be "in it with you." I believe that core and primary emotions, when explored and shared in a safe environment with a secure other, can achieve the transformation we desire--toward relief, confidence, an expanded sense of self, authenticity, happiness, peace, joy, meaning and depth, satisfaction, openness and nurturing, loving relationships.

My aim is to assist you in achieving personal and professional goals, by helping you to identify and address challenges, internal and external, that prevent you from connecting to and expressing your truest, most authentic self. Together we will focus on your unique history and attributes, and within this context, old patterns and present issues can unfold, be gently challenged, and brought into balance. Although I have received training in various treatment approaches (EMDR, EFT, CBT, IPT, Schema Therapy, etc.), I will attempt to integrate the best elements of each approach, tailoring the therapy to your individual needs.
