Sarah Hart
Welcome to my page! I'm Sarah. I offer EMDR and talk therapy for adults. If you're feeling stuck, wanting to feel more yourself, trust yourself, or show up differently in relationships, you're in the right place. You might be someone who spends a lot of time reflecting on your experiences, but still find it hard to move forward in the ways you’d like. If this resonates with you, we might be a good fit.
Using EMDR and a trauma-informed, holistic approach, I'll work with you to calm your nervous system, set boundaries that feel right for you, and reconnect with self-compassion and a stronger sense of yourself.
My goal is to help you feel understood and supported as you work through what’s coming up. I am passionate about making therapy a collaborative and comfortable space. and I will work with you at your own pace.
First session
Our first session is really just a chance for us to get to know each other. We’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you’ve been dealing with, and what you’re hoping to get out of therapy. I'll ask some questions to better understand your experiences, but there’s no pressure to share everything right away. We can go at your pace. You’re always welcome to ask me questions too. A big part of this first session is just seeing if it feels like a good fit for you.
Strengths
My approach is warm, supportive, and client-centered. I offer talk therapy, EMDR, trauma-focused, and solution-focused therapy, tailoring our work to your own personal needs and goals. Therapy can help you better understand yourself and create meaningful change. EMDR is always optional. I’m glad you’re taking the time to show up for yourself. We are often told to just push through, so choosing to care for yourself truly matters. I look forward to connecting and exploring how I can support you.
Ideal clients
I tend to work well with clients who feel stuck in their thoughts and have a hard time slowing their mind down. Many are self-aware and have insight into their patterns, but still feel unsure how to move forward. I also often work with people who put others first and are learning how to reconnect with themselves, build self-trust, and show up differently in their relationships.
Treatment methods
EMDR
I’m trained in EMDR, which helps with processing trauma and difficult memories. In our sessions, I'll guide you safely through EMDR to help your brain reprocess experiences that may be holding you back. My approach is collaborative and supportive.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I’m trained in DBT, a skills-based therapy that helps people manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and cope with stress more effectively.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use insights from CBT to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns and find healthier ways to cope.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I integrate mindfulness-based techniques to help clients stay present, reduce stress, and respond to challenges with awareness rather than reaction.
