Accepting new clients. My name is Sara and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist specializing in mental health and substance abuse.

Feeling alone, misunderstood, self-destructive, stressed, stuck, disconnected, and/or not like yourself is often what it means to be human. It’s a human experience to struggle, but you don’t have to hold your own burdens any longer. Although I consider myself a generalist, I specialize in anxiety, eating disorders, and trauma. Regardless of your reasons for seeking therapy, finding the right counselor for you means finding the right professional to help you hold and unpack your struggles, experiences, and vulnerabilities through thoughtful, evidence-based interventions.

Life often feels out of control. I view therapy as the process of working towards self-empowerment in the midst of an unpredictable world. My passion for counseling stems from my own experience of learning to control what I can, while also being kind to myself as I learned to let go of what I could not. I believe that as we become aware of people, places, and mindsets that are no longer serving us, we make room for those that will.

Life seems to have gotten harder than ever over the last few years. It's hard to know who to turn to when mood issues, depression, anxiety or PTSD hijack your life. As a board-certified, licensed clinical psychologist, I've spent nearly 15 years helping people recover from challenging mental health conditions. I've dedicated my career to help individuals of all genders recover from trauma. As an evidence-based mental health treatment expert, I also specialize in treating serious cases of depression, anxiety and OCD. I currently have an opening for one new patient.

Life is tricky... It's hard and messy and has no one right answer, especially now. Therapy is all about you figuring yourself out without judgment or expectations. Therapy with me, is a bit chaotic and messy too, like life. But trust me, the work is worth it. There is no one right way to "do" therapy or to be a client, but it is about you and what you're willing to bring to the table.

Dealing with life's challenges can leave us feeling overwhelmed and confused. Choosing counseling is the first step in facing challenges. Counseling provides a safe, compassionate place to gain new perspective, answer difficult questions, and resolve painful conflicts. I am committed to providing knowledgeable, supportive therapy in a non-judgmental, confidential environment. As Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, "Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase; just take the first step."

I have a passion for working with young children, adolescents, adults, and families. I believe that a family approach to counseling can be beneficial for many to allow change to happen for the whole family unit.

I tailor each session based on what the client(s) bring in that day and needs to work on. I have experience working with concerns such as trauma, divorce, life adjustments, behavioral issues, impulse control concerns, self-harm, grief, and self-esteem.
