Getting to know Dr. Sara Pulliam

Hi there, I'm Sara! I am Sara Pulliam, a board-certified licensed psychologist with a PsyD and a Master's in Psychology from Pacific University. I provide cognitive-behavioral therapy to adult patients. My approach My therapeutic framework is a short-term, solution-focused approach that teaches clients skills to address their challenges and reach their goals. I typically use cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and daily functioning. This approach has proven effective for many clients in improving life balance and overall well-being. My focus I work best with patients motivated to make changes to achieve their goals. I often support those looking to improve relationships, achieve better work-life balance, or navigate difficult life transitions. I have specialized training in mood disorders such as anxiety and depression, and extensive experience working with the military population. My communication style I provide a safe, non-judgmental, relaxed, and warm environment where clients can openly share their challenges. I meet clients where they are and offer the level of direction and expertise they want. My journey to mental healthcare I have always wanted to be a therapist because I enjoy helping people achieve their goals. I find it rewarding to partner with clients during difficult times and witness their success in developing skills to navigate life's journey. My goals for you I aim to collaborate with clients to achieve goals in a way that feels right for them. I believe goal setting is essential to ensure clients get what they hope for from therapy and to monitor progress throughout the process.
