Getting to know Sara Appleton

Hi there! I'm Sara Appleton. I am a licensed therapist passionate about helping women and men, as well as addressing the unique issues concerning pregnancy, postpartum, and the LGBTQIA+ community. Life can be extremely difficult to navigate at times, especially when going through major life transitions. These challenges can greatly impact our well-being, especially if we do not have the proper tools to work through them. It can seem impossible to deal with these life stressors and escape from the overwhelming feelings that accompany them. I can help guide your mental health journey, and together, we can learn how to manage the challenges life throws at you. In 2017, I graduated from Grand Canyon University with a master’s degree in professional clinical counseling. Now, as a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in individual practice, I primarily work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), pregnancy, relational communication issues, and LGBTQIA+ support. Before individual practice, I worked for Quail Run Behavioral Health Hospital (an in-patient facility), helping adolescents and adults begin the journey toward mental balance and stability. I focus on working with adults, using cognitive therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients think about the issues they’re facing from a different lens. By changing our thoughts, we can feel empowered to enact great change in our lives. I will always vow to work towards developing a collaborative, compassionate, and trusting relationship in which you feel heard. Together, we can break down the seemingly insurmountable barriers you feel in your life.
