Getting to know Sara Bonnick

Sara is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Registered Art Therapist. Her therapeutic approach is rooted in both Relational-Cultural Theory and the Expressive Therapies Continuum, with an emphasis on curiosity, sincerity, and validation. Sessions with Sara are fluid and collaborative, trauma informed, and often borrow techniques from emotion-focused therapy and mindfulness. Sara is enthusiastic about providing care to clients exploring their intersecting identities and being a witness to them as they navigate healing. Alongside traditional talk therapy, her practice encourages clients to utilize art therapy for expression, regulation, and emotional processing. With this foundation, Sara aims to curate a holding environment that tends to clients’ overall wellness. Experience Sara received her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Art Therapy from Lesley University in 2022.
