A Little More Information About….
Clients that want an authentic, thorough, and intuitive clinician will find value in working with Sara. She will ask the right questions to help you find clarity and make decisions, and more importantly, hold space for being “human” in a safe and confidential space. She is passionate about mental health and is grateful everyday to be invited on another person’s journey. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Sara combines neuroscience to a traditional model of “talk” psychotherapy. This blend is what makes her work different from most other mental health providers. Incorporating an understanding of our nervous system is the missing piece many forget; this approach heals the whole body and enables new meanings, healthier reactivity and greater sense of balance and self-esteem.
She works with individuals and couples who want a deeper, more meaningful life experience and need to shed unhelpful beliefs and behaviors….whether these come from past traumas, mental health issues, or difficult transitions. She considers herself a relationship expert and loves working with couples who feel stuck in the same negative cycles and want help finding new ways to create emotional connections or help with divorce matters.
Sara completed her Masters in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, a degree from the University of Wisconsin, and worked in business development before launching her career as a therapist. She uses her background in attachment theory and her training as a trauma therapist to provide a complete healing experience to her clients.
