Facing change in life is daunting, overwhelming and scary. I have lived that experience. Having worked in the mental health field for 10 years, I have come to believe in living a life of transparency. I practice from the place of "Knowledge is Power". I provide my patients feedback in the moment and work to challenge and encourage my patients to look at situations from a different perspective. My patients gain skills, knowledge and life change through therapeutic interventions specific to their needs.

My counseling approach is toward wellness and healing. People face many life challenges that may result in a state of brokenness, fatigue, and burnout. I will partner with you to find answers to hard questions, and solutions to your temporary and persistent life’s problems. I believe that counseling is a journey in which an equipped and experienced counselor walks alongside the person who seeks understanding and growth in certain life issues and behaviors. Counseling is never meant to be a passive experience - something being administered to you - but rather an active encounter that leads to growth and change for the better

My 30+ year career has found me working with people with anxiety and depression issues, as well as the incredible stresses due to life circumstances. I have been able to help clients who have found themselves with personality or impulse control issues. I tend to favor Cognitive Behavioral approaches in therapy, but am quite capable of adjusting my therapy techniques to best suit the problem.

We believe that counseling is an opportunity to talk with someone you can connect with in a safe environment without fear of judgment. There are a variety of issues that people face on a daily basis. Sometimes those life issues can become too burdensome to deal with on your own. This is where we come in. We work with clients who are dealing with: Depression, Anxiety, Child issues, Mood Disorders, Marriage/Family, Pre-Marital Counseling, Self-Esteem, Trauma, Divorce, Grief, Job and School Stressors. I find it a privilege to be able to walk alongside those who are seeking out assistance in their journey.

Sarah’s approach to counseling is rooted in Cognitive-Behavioral and Internal Family System theories. She wants her clients to feel as comfortable as possible during their time together, so she also utilizes strength-based and holistic therapies. She works primarily with adults, adolescents, and the LGBTQIA+ population, though she is willing to work with anyone who shows up and is willing to step into the safe space counseling provides. Sarah is an enthusiastic dog mom to her sweet little Chihuahuas, Chicken, and Chorizo. And she is also always taking gardening tips, as she has a never-ending hobby of ruining house plants.

I see counseling as a pathway that helps people discover their strengths and gain tools to better navigate anxiety, depression, grief, identity confusion, life transitions, or other difficult life circumstances. In a therapeutic relationship, you can process your feelings and thoughts in a safe space. My hope is that clients will be seen, be heard, and be known in the process, which empower you toward the positive change you want to see in your life.

As an ordained pastor, I began providing pastoral counseling to parishioners over a decade ago. Since gaining training and licensure as a Clinical Counselor, I have expanded my work to provide care to a wide variety of clients. While many of my clients have preferred working with me because of their desire to have Biblical principles included; I also enjoy working with clients who prefer a secular approach to therapy.

You want to show up to life as your best self, but maybe lately you haven't been feeling your best. Sometimes we feel very little control over our automatic reactions, but those reactions are having negative consequences for our work, relationships, or physical health. If you'd like to slow down and get to know your body and mind better, come work with me. I strive to make counseling a comfortable experience where you gain more understanding of your mental health and gain the skills to show up to your life as your best self.

Life is hard. Whether the struggle is with anxiety, depression, relationship distress, searching for meaning, processing current hurts or past traumas, counseling can be the beginning of a journey toward wellness and personal growth. Most importantly, counseling represents hope and it is this element that I enjoy most about being a counselor.

It is my desire to help couples work through problems and come together in healthier ways. I do this by trying help them to understand each other better and improve communication through counseling sessions and occasional homework assignments. As a Senior Professor of Social Work at Cedarville University for the past twenty-three years, I have developed a style that is eclectic and rooted in years of working with people. For those couples who desire counseling from a faith-based perspective, I enjoy encouraging them to find fulfillment in bringing God glory through their relationship.
