Sarah Ghatineh, LMSW
Whether you are looking for a space to unload and process, find new tools to navigate life, set and reach new goals (or recommit to previous ones), explore your identity, work through stress and trauma, improve your relationships, boundaries, and communication (including with yourself), or are finally ready to honor all the parts of you (and let go of those burdens which are not yours to carry), I am here to support you in the process. I hope to challenge you to uncover and project your authentic and dynamic potential, while acknowledging the harmful impacts of trauma and oppressive systems and celebrating your growth along the way.
I have experience and a special interest in working with 2SLGBTQIA+ and BIPOC populations, with a particular affinity for working with transgender, gender-expansive, and non-binary individuals. I have also worked extensively with immigrants, refugees, and children of immigrant families; first generation and beyond. My practice is rooted in anti-oppressive, gender-affirming, sex-positive, and trauma-informed perspectives that center on holistic empowerment and healing. I trust clients as the experts of their own lives, and I am consistently working to broaden my awareness surrounding the intersection of my privilege and impacting identities. Note: I can provide gender affirming surgery letters.
