I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 23 years of experience in the field. In my practice I assist my clients with resolving and healing issues which are preventing them from living their best life. Issues may vary from childhood traumas and life-long patterns, to recent life changes causing distress. Throughout my career I have worked with individuals presenting with depression, anxiety, self-limiting/self-sabotaging patterns, and relationship issues to name a few. I am a trauma-focused clinician trained in EMDR.

My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative and integrative, with a primary relational focus. What that means, for me, is that I value the therapeutic relationship as one of the most important vehicles for change. The problems in living that prompt people to seek psychotherapy often take the form of problems in relationships and I believe that, if we can understand and work through those problems in the context of the therapy relationship, that will facilitate understanding and meaningful change in other important relationships and areas of living.

My approach to psychotherapy is highly relational. I believe that most of our distress in life, often in the form of anxiety, depression, or uncontrolled anger, arises from unresolved conflicts in our important relationships, past and present, and that psychotherapy works by providing a new relationship-a supportive, empathic one in a which person can explore these important interpersonal connections, come to understand them in new ways, and change them. I focus the dialogue on a person's significant relationships, past and current, and on the feelings that one has about oneself and the important people in one's life.

Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Are you going through a major life transition and need support navigating your emotions? My name is Sarine and I am a bi-lingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor for MHC interns with over 15 years of clinical experience. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, couples and families who are facing difficulties with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, conflict, life transitions, grief/loss and managing challenging behaviors in children and teens. I also have a passion for working with individuals with Autism and Alzheimer’s Disease as well as their family members.

Are you ready to find solutions? Do you want to reconnect with your significant other? Or are you worried about your child's behavior or emotional well-being? It takes courage & time to invest in your relationships & emotional well-being. We are all on a journey, striving to be the best versions of ourselves while battling the very real obstacles surrounding the human experience. It is important to acknowledge that we will all probably experience some form of trauma or difficulty in relationships. By learning how our thoughts, feelings, & behaviors are all connected, we can learn how to weather the storm & enjoy the sunny days.

Caring for ourselves is similar to tending a garden. It should be looked after, nurtured, and maintained. Sometimes weeds creep in and prevent plants from growing; withering away what was once a beautiful garden. The same is true for the garden of our souls. As your counselor, I will provide a safe and supportive environment for you to heal and grow into the person you were created to be. I would be honored to walk alongside you to help you recover and improve your emotional and mental well-being.

Feeling like you're constantly on defense against life’s blitzes? From the heavy tackles of trauma to dodging the daily flags of depression and anxiety, it’s like you're in a tough game with no playbook. Battling substance issues, family feuds, or parenting pressures aren’t just minor penalties; they can feel like you're down by a touchdown with seconds on the clock. Now you’re looking for a coach who can help you read the field, call the right audibles, and turn those fourth-quarter fears into a comeback story. It's about finding those breakthrough plays that shift the momentum and get you back in the game.

I am a fellow traveler on the adventurous, mysterious journey of life. On this journey, we are faced with obstacles we must overcome to reach our goals. When faced with an obstacle, we have several options. Ignore it and pretend it's not there (denial), turn around and go back (avoidance), say we are not quite ready to deal with it and wait for the "perfect" time (procrastinate), or, we can strive to confront it and persevere. Join me on a journey to learn the tools necessary to gracefully and courageously overcome problems and deal with obstacles head on.
