Getting to know Sara Nielsen

Hello, I'm Sara, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience. I am licensed in Alabama, Missouri, and Kansas, and have spent around 16 years working as a psychotherapist. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of helping clients navigate a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, self-esteem, OCD, ADHD, and more. My experience spans diverse settings such as residential treatment, inpatient hospitalization, correctional facilities, outpatient care, and online formats. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, have relationship issues with food, and eating disorders. This is a safe space for you to explore and heal. My counseling style is collaborative and interactive, always guided by your needs. I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and strengths-based counseling. I tailor my methods to fit your unique needs and preferences, and together, we will determine the best path for your therapeutic journey. I understand that seeking help and making changes can be incredibly challenging, and I am here to support you every step of the way. I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your goals. Let's embark on this journey together.
