Getting to know Sabra Starnes

Hi there, I'm Sabra! I believe therapy is a collaborative process. My role is to assist you in finding solutions that benefit you best. I focus on working with teens and adults on stress, anxiety, and depression. My highest priority is cultivating a space where you feel safe, supported, and unconditionally accepted. I have been doing therapy for 24 years and am passionate about supporting others on their healing journey. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from The Catholic University of America and a Bachelor’s degree from Bennett College. My approach I enjoy working with women ready to use therapy as a safe space to make changes for themselves. Often, we focus on others' needs; therapy allows you to focus on yourself. Sessions offer a supportive environment to work on your goals. I provide individual virtual sessions only. I work with clients motivated to work on themselves and their goals. Therapy is not a vent session; you are in the driver's seat of feeling different and changing your life. If you are ready to do the work, I am here to support and guide you to gain new insight into how you feel and see the world. Therapy takes as long as it takes. My focus Each person is unique, so I use an individual, strength-based approach. I incorporate skills and interventions such as deep breathing, meditation, relaxation, guided imagery, and journaling to infuse healing. I use Person-centered, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Short Term Therapy, and Strength-based Therapy. My communication style I create a warm, calming environment where you feel comfortable, safe, and heard.
