About Sara:
As a holistic, trauma-focused therapist, I offer a safe, validating space where we can explore the challenges you're facing. My approach is grounded in deep empathy, recognizing that mental health is shaped by both internal experiences and external influences like relationships and environment. By integrating evidence-based therapies such as CBT and DBT with neurofeedback, I support you in healing from past trauma, managing anxiety, and unlocking your full potential. Together, we’ll work toward achieving lasting mental wellness, personal empowerment, and a deeper connection to your authentic self.
I work with a diverse range of individuals, recognizing that everyone’s journey to healing is unique. My approach is especially helpful for those navigating:
Trauma Survivors: Whether it's childhood trauma, relational trauma, or recent traumatic events, I provide a compassionate space to process pain, heal, and build resilience.
Individuals with Anxiety & Stress: If you’re feeling overwhelmed, experiencing chronic stress, or battling anxiety, we’ll explore both the root causes and coping strategies, with a focus on restoring balance and clarity.
People in Transition: Life changes, such as career shifts, relationship struggles, or identity crises, can bring about confusion and distress. I help clients navigate these periods with self-compassion and clarity, empowering them to make informed choices.
Neurodivergent Individuals: I work with clients who may identify with ADHD or other neurodivergences, supporting them through tailored strategies for emotional regulation, executive functioning, and social connection.
Those with Multigenerational or Family Dynamics Challenges: If you're dealing with inherited family patterns or complex relationship dynamics, we can explore and address these influences while fostering healthier connections.
Individuals Seeking Personal Growth: Whether you’re asking the big existential questions, exploring your identity, or seeking deeper purpose, I’ll guide you toward greater self-awareness and fulfillment.
My approach honors the complexity of each individual, and I work collaboratively with clients to address not just symptoms, but also the bigger picture of their life’s context. Through trauma-informed care, neurofeedback, and therapeutic techniques tailored to your needs, my goal is to help you rediscover your inner strength and build a life that aligns with your true self.
