I love meeting people, exploring how they define their goals, and then working together to achieve it. The beauty in being human is that we can have similar stories or feelings and yet still be so unique in our behavior and perception. I look forward to getting to know you so we can make long lasting positive changes. I have an eclectic client-centered approach where I utilize evidence-based treatments to help my clients experience relief, peace, and success. As we put the pieces of...

Finding a new therapist can be hard. I believe that the most important part of therapy is having the right fit with the right therapist. In order to be open to the process you have to feel comfortable with your provider. Consider your first session an interview to see if we will work well together. Therapy should be a tool to find personal strengths and develop new resources. I believe that my years of experience have taught me what works and how to navigate when someone is stuck. I hope that I ...

I like to view myself as a modern and relatable therapist. I love working with college students because young adulthood is the time in our life with the most changes in comparison to our entire lifespan. It is when we are trying to establish ourselves as individuals, separate from our families and perhaps even the town we grew up in. We are faced with endless opportunities and the freedom may feel scary. Some young adults have feelings of anxiety and depression due to the level of independence a...
Among all the uncertainties of life, making the choice to start therapy is yet another risky plunge into the unknown. Before you decide to give me a call I’d like to try and give you a sense of who I am and what it might be like for us to sit together. Although my title is doctor, my clients call me Sarah. I think of my role as one of accompaniment, you’re the lead and it’s my job to follow your pace, your volume, your moments of free expression. Together we get curious in a way that is, ope...

There are two primary elements that make up the majority of the magic that happens in therapy: the quality of what is shared between therapist and patient and the elements that are carried forth and applied to life. The relational qualities that are necessary for the unfolding of trust and insight are natural aspects of who I am as a person: warm, non-judgmental, accepting, curious, and kind. Most have not experienced these elements consistently in a relationship, and growth arises naturally ...
