I have a lifelong passion for serving others. I have always had a deep interest in the world around me and endlessly curious about the many ways I could be a part of effecting change. I have dedicated my life to learning about politics and global health in an effort to understand better the systems that are inextricably linked to how we experience the communities we inhabit. I work with feminist theory and I believe in tailoring my approach to where the client is on their healing journey. I am also of Eastern European decent, and enjoy working with folks of a similar background.

Therapy provides the time and space to reflect and gain insight into past and present experiences, thoughts, and feelings. In my practice I create a warm and accepting environment where people feel safe and supported expressing and exploring their emotions, telling their stories, and growing personally and emotionally. Using an integrated approach based on the specific needs of each person, the focus is building upon existing strengths and adding new coping skills while reducing distress.

Hi! I'm Sarah and I use she/her pronouns. My therapy practice is trauma-informed, feminist, relational, and empathetic, These approaches mean the foundation of our work is the relationship we build. I believe in compassionate curiosity and thoughtful questions to support you through life's various struggles. I became a therapist because I believe I can best support people navigating the multitudes of their existence and experiences. I am destined for complexity. I believe when complexity is held and explored, no one gets left out. I desire to hold space for people to ask questions, seek support, and explore who they want to be.

Hi! A few things to know about me - I believe each person is doing the best they can with what they have, and have a passion for working with those who wish to learn how to best use their strengths effectively to reach their goals. I enjoy working with adults seeking to learn more about themselves, including the patterns that may have stopped working for them. Few things feel more honorable than sitting with those who are open to challenge themselves, while honoring their needs, wants and goals. I love working with those with the desire to continue growing through every chapter of life.
