My hope is that my clients will find increased clarity regarding their values, needs, and goals; that they will recognize their own strengths and resiliency; that they will increase their skills for managing and reducing stress; and that they will make life changes that lead to greater well-being.
My name is Sarah Travis Buck and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them become more self-aware and accepting so that they can realize their strengths, recognize what obstacles lie in their path, and take steps to make the changes they need to make. Together we will enquire into how you want to change your life, what it will take for you to make that happen, and what is blocking you.

Are you feeling tired of struggling with anxiety, overwhelming stress, low self-confidence, or negative thinking? Are you not feeling like yourself these days, or have you been ignoring the anger, fear, and resentment building inside of you so long you don’t even know who you are anymore? Or perhaps you’re arguing more intensely with your partner, feeling emotionally battered and bruised, questioning whether you’ll ever be heard or understood. Maybe you feel stuck and hopeless about it, and you’re thinking it’s time to get help because you want to give it a real chance with a real therapist who knows how to turn it all around.
