Hello, I'm Sarah. I help teens and adults with a variety of life problems, ranging from low self-esteem, anxiety disorders, stress, depression, procrastination, adjustment to college, and general life burnout. I have a collaborative and practical approach to therapy and use a variety of techniques. Whether you are experiencing stress, anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or unable to give yourself a break I am here to provide a space where you can feel heard, validated, and accepted.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the intake and following initial sessions, we will begin and continue the engagement process; getting to know each other. We will also review the provided assessments a prospective client completes prior to our intake. I will be asking questions, obtaining some personal information so that I can gain clarity about presenting problems and challenges a prospective client might be facing.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am a good listener and provide insight. I also have a natural interest/curiosity about people in general, in terms of what motivates their actions. I would consider myself a "digger", as I am willing and able to peel away layers to get to the heart of the matter. I have found that there is always a great deal happening underneath the surface. Ultimately, I would hope that a prospective client gains new insight and a deeper understanding of themself from our time together.
