Getting to know Sarah Marshall
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re used to holding it all together for others. I offer grounded, compassionate support for adults navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, grief, and relational challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful of your lived experience, because healing begins with being truly seen. When you’re ready, I’m here to walk with you.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in each client’s unique needs. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you’re met with both understanding and honest reflection—a place where you don’t have to perform or hold it all together. I blend cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with insight-oriented work, mindfulness, and psychoeducation to support emotional regulation and deeper self-awareness. For those navigating sensitivity, burnout, or life transitions, I focus on grounding and nervous system support to help you reconnect with your truth, strength, and sense of self, perhaps for the first time.
I work best with clients who feel emotionally overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in unfulfilling patterns—often while holding it all together for others. Many are navigating life transitions, grief, or relational pain. If you’re the strong one, the sensitive one, or the one who can’t seem to rest, I see you. I especially support intuitive, empathic, or highly sensitive people who carry emotional weight that isn’t fully theirs. You might feel like something’s “off,” even if things look fine on the outside. My approach is grounded and collaborative—we’ll name what’s weighing on you, set supportive boundaries, and help you reconnect with your inner steadiness.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My communication style is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I create a safe space where you can speak freely and feel truly heard. I listen deeply—not just to your words, but to what’s underneath—and offer gentle, honest reflections to help you gain clarity. Clients often say they feel seen in ways they haven’t before. I bring humor when helpful, compassion when needed, and a steady presence when things feel overwhelming. You can expect transparent communication, thoughtful feedback, and a strong therapeutic alliance rooted in care, respect, and realness.
I’ve always been someone who feels deeply and notices what others overlook. Early on, I became the person others turned to during difficult times, and that intuitive sense of emotional attunement naturally led me to the field of therapy. I earned my master’s degree in counseling from Loyola University Chicago and have spent nearly two decades supporting clients through grief, anxiety, burnout, life transitions, and relational pain. My approach is grounded in the belief that healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken, but about reconnecting to what’s true. This work continues to stretch and humble me, and I remain committed to holding space that is both real and restorative.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process grounded in compassion and clarity. Together, we’ll define what progress looks like for you—whether it’s navigating anxiety, building boundaries, processing grief, or feeling more emotionally grounded. I’ll support you in identifying meaningful goals and adjusting them as needed, using a blend of evidence-based approaches like CBT and mindfulness alongside insight-oriented reflection. Some clients benefit from structure and tools; others need space to be witnessed without pressure. I aim to meet you where you are, help you reconnect with your wisdom, and move forward at a pace that feels sustainable, even when life feels overwhelming.
Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin building a sense of trust. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, explore any patterns or stressors you’re facing, and I’ll ask some questions to better understand your history and goals. There’s no pressure to have it all figured out — I’ll meet you where you are and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable. Whether you’re feeling nervous or unsure, I’m here to guide you through each step of the process with empathy, curiosity, and care.
