Hi I'm Sara

Deciding to start therapy takes courage and strength. Whatever has brought you to my practice, be assured that you have might the right choice and you are on a path to healing. I began my career working in shelters for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, but I have found my passion as a therapist. Meeting with me will be part of your own self care, but I am not afraid to gently push you through emotional barriers. Feedback is vital, so you will learn to trust me and we will use tangible tools to treat your everyday challenges. I strongly believe that everyone is capable of change, and you don’t have to do it alone.
