Hi there, I'm Sarah! Starting therapy is a huge step, and I'm so excited you're here! I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, body image struggles, and life transitions, and I’ll work with you to make each session feel like it’s just right for you. Whenever you’re ready, I’m here to offer a safe, supportive space where you can truly be yourself and start your journey. My approach I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques to create an approach that best fits you and your unique needs. I use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you shift unhelpful thought patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support you in living in line with your values, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help process past trauma and overcome limiting beliefs. Your goals and progress are my priority, and together, we’ll identify challenges and develop strategies to help you move forward with confidence. My focus Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, past trauma, or body image struggles?

Together, we’ll create a personalized plan that helps you heal, build confidence, and move toward a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. My communication style I am open and honest with my clients, with my goal being to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel heard and supported. I practice active listening and approach each session with empathy, giving you space to reflect on your experiences while guiding you when needed. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to become a therapist began after I went through a very difficult time in my personal life while I was in college, and I worked with a therapist who truly changed my life.
