Hi there! I’m Sarah :) Congratulations at taking the first step in reaching out to a counselor. I can understand how difficult it can be for some to make that decision.

I have 32 years of experience providing counseling. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, stressing that what we think determines what we feel and what we do. For many reasons, people learn unrealistic or destructive thoughts that cause them problems in their lives. Therapy works towards more realistic thinking, and avoiding old and destructive thinking. As I like to say, "therapy is a conversation with a destination," and realistic thinking is that destination.

I've helped clients navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, amputations and traumatic brain injuries. I believe healing happens when people feel safe, heard, and supported, so I strive to create a calm, encouraging environment where growth can change can take place.
My goal as a therapist is to meet you exactly where you are and walk alongside you as you rediscover your strengths and potential. Whether you're looking for understanding, coping skills, or a path toward deeper healing, I'm here to help guide that process with compassion and care.
