Sarah Barrett Lepore, LPCC

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Sarah! Hello, I'm Sarah, a CA LPCC who comes to this career through an intuitive seeking of truly understanding and embodying what it means to be “healed” on an emotional, psychological, and physical level. This journey of introspection began when I was 17, and now at 53, I continue to refine and integrate what connects the body and mind versus what separates. It is my conceptualization that separation from self, fragmentations from the whole, is the root cause of dis-ease in body and mind, and by identifying these specific fragments, aka causes of suffering, there is an opportunity for true, lasting, restorative healing. I hold a Master's in Counseling from Naropa University, which has deeply informed my approach and understanding. My approach My therapeutic approach is rooted in a contemplative model, namely Transpersonal and Humanistic/Client Centered. From there, I blend in Eco-Psychology, specifically utilizing the Comprehensive Resource Model. In some cases, client concerns are rooted in DNA; therefore, I embrace the science of Epigenetics. With the work of embodiment, we are able to access the effects of trauma that occurred in this lifetime as well as in past generations, on an individual or collective level. Talk therapy is also utilized to understand cognitively the purpose of how the effects of past trauma are presenting in daily life. The key to true healing lies in the relationship to one's body, one's ability to be fully present, centered, and calm in relationship to self and others. My focus The majority of my clients have arrived to me with some level of the following life disruptions: extreme anxiety and depression, insomnia, CPTSD/PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorders, and/or intimate relationship issues. I see clients aged 17-75 years of age. I also have experience with eating disorder and addiction recovery, as well as extreme attachment disruption which occurs with childhood ritual abuse.
