Sarena Wahl
Hi! For over 10 years, I’ve walked alongside children, teens, and adults who felt stuck in places they never meant to camp - whether that’s addiction, anxiety, depression, or the lingering effects of trauma. Change rarely happens all at once; it unfolds gradually, step by step, often across uneven ground.

I see my role as helping you find your bearings, lighten what you’ve been carrying, and building skills to navigate challenges with steadiness and clarity. I offer therapy that is steady and relational, grounded in genuine connection. We’ll look beneath the surface at the stories and patterns that have shaped your path so far, with warmth and consistent support along the way.
First session
In our first session together, we’ll start with brief introductions and take some time to map out the challenges you’re currently navigating. From there, we’ll chart a thoughtful, personalized path forward, guiding our work in the sessions ahead. Wherever you’re starting from, we’ll move at a pace that fits you, building a path forward that feels manageable and meaningful.
Strengths
I approach therapy through a trauma-informed lens, fostering a safe and supportive space where meaningful healing can take place. With experience working across a variety of ages and backgrounds, I build strong therapeutic connections and thoughtfully adapt evidence-based approaches to help clients reach their goals.
Ideal clients
Children, teens, and young adults managing the impact of trauma, grief, loss, substance use, and other overwhelming life experiences. I work best with clients who are ready to build coping skills, process difficult events, and move toward greater stability, confidence, and resilience.
Treatment methods
Trauma-Focused CBT
Through TF-CBT, I support clients in building coping skills, processing traumatic experiences in a safe and structured way, and reshaping unhelpful thoughts that may be impacting their emotions and behaviors. My goal is to create a compassionate, empowering space where clients can strengthen resilience, restore a sense of safety, and move forward with confidence.
