Welcome! My name is Sarah Burnett, and I created Balance Is The Key to nurture a holistic approach to mental health and wellness. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I specialize in trauma and transition therapy among teens, young adults and individuals, parent coaching and child therapy. I utilize various treatment modalities including NLP (neuro-linguistic programing), ART (accelerated resolution therapy), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), mindfulness and yoga to help you bring your personal life, relationships and professional world back into balance.

Your comfort is a priority and vital to your growth and healing.

Hi there, Congrats on making it to this step! Looking into therapy can be overwhelming, whether it is your first time or your familiar with it. You may think, is this really for me? I am here to tell you that you are not alone in this journey. I believe therapy is for anyone and everyone. Whether you are going through a crisis or not, having someone unbiased to talk to can help. You have to find the right fit and I hope I can be that, but if not I would love to provide you with other resources. I believe in making therapy an accepting and safe place that provides compassion, honesty, and focusing on Progress rather than Perfection.

I help clients overcome obstacles, heal wounds and find their joy. Life is too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. I am your co-pilot and together we use your strengths, build insight and find the amazing person that has been you this whole time! 

Life can be dysfunctional and although many of us learn how to function in this dysfunction there are times where it may become too much to walk in alone. Your life seems filled with constant thoughts of "I should have: said that differently, told them how I felt, spoke up for myself". You struggle with fears of judgment and expectations. Somedays it may seem like an impossible mission to get out of bed, shower, feed yourself or socialize with others. You struggle with persistent irrational thoughts that you are aware of but can't seem to make them stop.

Are you struggling to manage your anxiety or depression? Do you struggle with perfectionism or low self-esteem? Maybe you just need to process your stuff! Anyone is susceptible to becoming stuck, lost, feeling numb, or not feeling authentic with who they are. You don’t have to stay there. By working together, we can hone in on your strengths to find solutions, reflect on your present and past to find peace and healing, and set goals that further you to achieve restoration, access clarity, and embrace new knowledge that can equip you to embrace life more fully.

Counseling is all about having a space to explore yourself, your values, and your identity without fear of judgement or expectations. My therapeutic approach is based on viewing my clients as the experts on their own lives and accompanying them on their journey to wellness non-judgmentally and with competence. I believe in using an integrated approach, as every client is different, and it is important to meet clients where they are at. My goals as a counselor include assisting clients in reaching their full potential by giving clients a safe space so they may engage in self- discovery and growth.

Do you feel weighed down by feelings of anxiety or depression? Do you experience loneliness or lack a sense of direction? Are you looking for greater meaning and understanding in your life and life’s purpose? Are you seeking to create balance, and harmony in your life?

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, or stress management? Is your teen impacted negatively with social pressure? Are you a young person struggling to decide on a career path? Does your family/relationship dynamic need a "tune up"? Therapy can help with many of life's challenges.

I firmly believe the human connection is what heals, the rapport, the relationship between people. I don’t think people should be in therapy for the rest of their lives but during our time together, I want to help you feel whole again. To feel like you can love and trust again. To look forward to next day instead of dreading it. To feel like you and your partner are on the same page again. In the end, I want you to not need me but to also know that my door is always open to you if you ever want to check in and remain accountable to your goals.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, and/or fear caused by overwhelming changes, relationship concerns, or experiencing a difficult time in your life? Maybe it's something that "just doesn't feel right", or perhaps you just need extra support for a major life decision or situation. Have you been thinking about seeing a therapist, but not sure where to begin? Seeking help is a positive step in the right direction. Everyone experiences challenging times, however, when life stressors become extremely overwhelming it is time to reach out for professional help.
