Our reaction to stressors that feel out of our control can vary widely. This is largely based upon our already established internal resources or our sense of psychological safety, the quality of habitual attention we show up with, the quality of communication in our relationships, the clarity of our personal values and the physiological setpoint of our nervous system. Each of these factors are pieces of your experience that I am happy to assess with you.

Welcome! Reaching out for help takes courage, and you are taking a courageous step towards healing. Perhaps you are here because each day is a struggle, like trudging through deep waters, each step feeling like it is too much. Maybe the thought of going through your day makes your heart race and your head spin. Or do you live with painful memories and intrusive thoughts from your past? It is possible to feel light and joy in your life again. Therapy can help you rediscover yourself - work towards a happier, healthier, more functional you - in a safe space free of judgment or fear.

Life can be very stressful at times. Our moods, anxiety levels, thinking and behaviors can depend on how well we are able to manage these stressors over time. Sometimes, the coping skills we have learned simply are not enough and we feel overwhelmed and out of control. There is a solution to almost every problem. My goal in therapy is to provide a safe environment so that you can learn to better manage your thinking, feeling and behavior and regain control and power in your life.

My counseling philosophy is rooted in the belief that the client is the expert in their own life and that each person has an innate ability to grow and change. Therapy is a process that can help you identify unresolved issues that impact your access to that ability. Before beginning my time as a counselor I worked with individuals and families as a teacher, and by serving on the Juvenile Justice Advisory Board and the Los Alamos New Mexico Board of Education. Through that work, I saw the impact that empathy and mental health professionals can make in the lives of individuals, families and communities.

I enjoy working with a wide variety of clients, and have done so since I began practicing in 1994. Psychotherapy can be an uncomfortable experience, and I see myself as a fellow traveler in that journey. I have worked extensively with sexual abuse victims, anxiety, and depression. I am also a sex offender treatment provider.

**NEW CLIENTS - Please email me** No one deserves to live in pain. For therapy to work, you need three things: curiosity about yourself and your interactions with others, an authentic connection with your therapist, and concrete, practical tools and skills to promote real and lasting change. My job is to facilitate an understanding of what is causing you pain and getting in your way of creating your best life. As your therapist, I don’t “just listen.” I use an integrative approach, combining several modalities to create the most effective treatment for each client. I practice remote therapy with individual adults.

If you or your teen recognize the need to make some changes in your life, but what you have been doing or perhaps what you have avoided doing isn't working anymore, I hope you will give me an opportunity to get you headed on the right path. Whether the challenges are related to high emotions, poor coping, depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts or trauma, I can help you learn new things about yourself and integrate tools and strategies to make living your best life easier.

We will not try to make you do what somebody else wants you to do. We start with your goals & find ways to help you develop the necessary skills. We have found that, if a person's individual wishes are not represented in the solution, it will not work in the long run. So there is a strong emphasis on helping each person take responsibility and control over their own happiness. Some things are better handled individually, and some things are better handled with both people in the room. Our unique blend of individual & couples therapy is quite effective.

My approach to counseling involves a direct and socratic style, employing various cognitive-behavioral methods to challenge clients and equip them with enduring tools for success. I’m dedicated to helping clients understand that our well-being is intricately linked to our beliefs and choices as we strive to fulfill our fundamental needs for survival, love, importance, and variety. Collaboratively, I work with each client to determine the most effective means of supporting them in meeting these needs through the power of choice.

Hello! I'm Sara Gaertner and I've been working as a therapist for nearly 10 years. I am trained as a social worker and take a person-in-environment approach to therapy. This means that I want to understand the many aspects of your life and how they impact you in order to help you improve your quality of life. I worked in a state prison for 7.5 years which exposed me to a wide variety of human experiences and taught me that healing can be found in even the worst of situations.
