Congratulations on taking the first step in your mental health journey. I am looking forward to meeting you! I am a board certified Adult/Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist and Pediatrician. I specialize in combining psychotherapy with medication management, and utilizing a holistic approach with assessment of lifestyle factors and physical health that integrates my expertise as a pediatrician. I treat a wide range of conditions with particular expertise in treating Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), among others. I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where clients feel heard, understood, and valued. I have particular interest in addressing conflicts that arise from cultural, personal, and social identity struggles and providing a safe space to explore and empower clients to embrace their unique identities and build confidence through positive reinforcement and validation of one's experiences. I also provide support and skills for managing the pressures of academic performance, fostering independence, and career planning.
I enjoy working with individuals who have ADHD, anxiety, self-esteem issues, trauma and/or emotion dysregulation. Through the use of specialized therapies (including CBT), I help you develop the ability to manage and express your thoughts and feelings, improve your relationships, get your needs met, extinguish the need for unhealthy behaviors, and develop a sense of internal completeness. I am a hypnotherapist as well a psychotherapist. I believe that therapy can produce healthy changes. I love being a therapist and understand the risk involved in taking the first steps toward getting help. Contact me today to begin your journey toward a satisfying life! While I am happy to address relationship issues, I do not provide couples therapy. I also do not treat eating disorders.

This time in your life can be one of transitions and transformations. Talking to a professional and processing it all can be very beneficial. You’re not alone. Whether you’re dealing with the stress of academic pressure, social pressures, anxiety, or depression, I’ve helped many individuals sort through these issues that can arise during this time in one’s life.
My approach to therapy is focused on developing genuine relationships that are collaborative and empathic, so clients can feel safe, understood, and supported in sessions. I’m committed to exploring and affirming each client's individuality and intersecting identities, and to supporting individuals in the LGBTQ+ and CNM communities, college students, and professors. I work with adults focused on issues related to social anxiety, ADHD, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, relationship/communication dynamics, and climate anxiety. Sessions are based on a foundation of relational warmth and safety to build a sense of connection, empowerment, deeper insight, and personal resiliency. I primarily draw from person-centered, feminist, trauma-informed, narrative, and IFS approaches, but there is not one specific kind of therapy that works well for everyone. We all have unique strengths and perspectives. Sessions focus on identifying ways to create sustainable positive changes given each client's particular context and lived experience.
Are you experiencing stress in your relationships and you want to build healthier ones? Maybe you find saying “no” to be impossible, you don’t feel heard by others, or you have a difficult time managing your emotions on top of typical college stressors. Perhaps past relationships, trauma, or negative experiences have impacted you. It can be so frustrating and isolating to focus on healing in order to build a better future. You don’t have to be alone in it. It is natural for people to get stuck throughout life, especially during transitions (and college is a big one!). I am here to help you adapt and reconnect with yourself. You want to reconnect with the version of you know have seemingly disconnected from. Reconnecting with things YOU enjoy and learning to put yourself first. Through building coping skills and in a safe and compassionate therapy space, together, we will work to build the best version of you. I find it important to be myself in therapy, whether this means swearing when appropriate, using humor, and connecting with my clients. If you would like to learn more about therapy with me, please reach out! I'd love to get to know you.

We all need some direction in life at times. Our practice offers a nonjudgmental, supportive environment where you can create goals and work toward them in your own time in your own way. College transition is difficult. Relax. Most of what you’re feeling is very common. You are establishing your identity. This shouldn’t be easy. Please call us if you need any direction or support. We are here to listen. Talk soon! 💜
Do you feel exhausted from trying to hold everything together? Maybe you have always been the responsible one or the person others rely on. You pushed through stress, anxiety, and family challenges because you felt like you had to. At first it seemed manageable, but now the pressure feels heavier and harder to carry. On the outside you appear confident and put together. Inside you might feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or worried that you cannot keep this up much longer. Wanting a break does not mean you are failing. It means you are human. I’m Sara, and I help students who are tired of perfectionism, constant pressure, and the weight of expectations. I work with people who want healthier relationships, better communication, and support as they process past experiences that still affect them today. My background includes ACT, CBT, TF-CBT, Brainspotting, and group therapy training, which allows me to tailor our work to what you need. In our sessions, you can expect a warm, honest, and real environment where you can finally let your guard down. I show up as myself so you can feel comfortable showing up as yourself too. You deserve a space where you can put down the pressure you have been carrying and focus on feeling grounded, supported, and hopeful. I am here to help you get there.
My approach is person-centered, DBT-oriented, and grounded in a trauma-informed, holistic, and culturally sensitive framework. I believe therapy should be collaborative and tailored to each individual’s unique needs and lived experiences. I place a strong emphasis on building practical, evidence-based skills—particularly DBT skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness—to help clients better manage emotions, navigate relationships, and cope with life’s challenges. My goal is to support clients in creating meaningful change while honoring where they are in the present moment.
The transition to college at any age can be challenging. Course load, social pressures and changes to friend network during this transition can cause anxiety, depression, burnout and relationship issues. These things can keep you awake at night, make it difficult to focus on your studies, lead you to engage in negative self-talk and unhealthy behaviors. I can help you develop coping strategies to help ease that transition so you can make healthy choices and achieve your educational goals.
I’m glad you’re here. Looking for support is a big first step. Therapy can be a place to slow down, to make sense of what you’re dealing with, and find new ways forward that feel more manageable. I have extensive experience working with college-aged and emerging adults navigating identity, relationships, and life transitions. Additionally, I've worked with adults on the autism spectrum, family members and caregivers of people with developmental disabilities, and others in helping roles. More importantly, I’m interested in getting to know you as an individual and working together in a way that feels supportive, practical, and aligned with who you are. Therapy works best when it feels like a partnership. I’ll listen, guide, and support you as you build on your strengths, tackle challenges, and develop practical tools for growth. Together, we’ll create a safe space where you can feel understood, empowered, and more confident in yourself.

A riverbend symbolizes a new direction and the future that is waiting to be discovered. When struggling with emotional distress like anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, or more it can be extremely difficult to see the positives that could appear ahead. Like a riverbend, counseling can be the new direction towards peace and calm, and a step towards a brighter future. I am an LCSW with experience in the field of mental health and addiction. I strongly believe in utilizing a holistic and person-centered approach to help empower individuals to reach the goals that are most important to them. If you are entering a new phase of life, have been struggling with your mental health, or are a parent who has been impacted by a loved one’s substance use, please feel free to reach out to schedule a free consultation, and know that you are not alone in this journey.
