Therapists in Kittitas County, WA
Hi, I’m Sarah Hughes. I know what it’s like to struggle with mental health because I’ve been there myself. It can feel like a tight knot that gets tighter the more you try to unravel it. It’s having a critical voice inside you that always seems to have the answers, even when it’s not helpful. Stepping outside your comfort zone can overwhelm both your mind and body. You might feel like you’re never quite meeting expectations—simultaneously too much and not enough. It’s navigating a world that often misunderstands or doesn’t accommodate your unique strengths and challenges.

As a licensed psychologist, I specialize in working with youth athletes ages 7-24, coaches, and parents who are deeply committed to enhancing their performance, both in their sport and in life. Together, we work on the athlete's chosen goals, creating the mental fortitude and skills necessary to excel under pressure, overcome obstacles such as injuries, and work cohesively as part of a team. Athletes learn skills such as relaxation, self-talk, imagery, concentration/focus, centering, motivation, and more. I also work with coaches who are interested in integrating mental skills into their coaching strategies.

I particularly love coaching busy professionals, helping them be more effective at work, improve their general wellness, and avoid burnout so they can find greater satisfaction and happiness, at home and at work.
I work with individuals ages 18 and up. I see symptoms as a request from the psyche to grow -- whether this manifests as depression, anxiety, or just a feeling that you want more from your life or your relationships. Or you may be experiencing a transition, grief, or loss and need support to navigate this change. Therapy creates a space in which healing and growth can happen. I believe humans have a natural, inherent tendency toward health and self-actualization. We are hard-wired to live good and meaningful lives, but sometimes need support to do so.

Coaching Therapists
Life coaching is an increasingly popular profession that has no specific licensing or academic requirements. Though psychologists also often consider themselves life coaches, these therapists don't focus on treating mental illness. Instead, they help individuals realise their goals in work and in life.
