Hi! I'm Sarah. I might be a good fit for you if you're looking for a non-judgemental space where you feel safe enough to be vulnerable. We're all human, and show our feelings in unique ways. I believe firmly in tailoring space and services to meet client needs. Is there a special way you'd like to open session? An aspect of your culture or spiritual practices that you hope to integrate? Let's have a conversation about it. I always have sage, incense, tarot cards, and fidget toys on hand. Do you want music playing during session? Bring your favourite playlist. Let's create your bravest space possible!
I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology, and I am currently pursuing my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. I use a person-centered approach where you are the expert and author in your own story. I offer warmth, compassion, humour, acceptance, and a little alternative energy! Be you gentle, feral, or both, you are invited to evolve here.
We each bring our own history to every interaction we experience. It is my goal to walk with you on your self discovery journey in a way that honours your history and growth. Can't wait to meet you!
