Hi! My name is Sarah, I'm a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist and community partner at Healing Reimagined. I've been providing trauma informed counseling in non-profits, sexual violence prevention programs, and long-term mental health & substance abuse treatment for the last 5 years. I primarily work with individuals who are navigating anxiety and life changes, folks who have been affected by interpersonal violence, addiction, or other traumas. My intention is to create a space that feels secure for folks to feel seen and heard for who they are, while moving through their own healing process.

Whether you’re facing a challenge or simply looking for growth, therapy can help. My hope is to accompany you as you move toward healing, wholeness, and flourishing. In therapy, I seek to embody a nonjudgmental, honest, and compassionate presence. You will find an environment where you can share freely and work on what’s most important to you. You will be equipped with tools and skills that will enable you to reach your goals.

Making the decision to engage in psychotherapy is an important step in healing from traumatic life events that leave emotional wounds long into adulthood. My approach to working with individuals suffering from traumatic stress comes from an understanding that trauma is stored in the body. Often traditional talk therapy is ineffective until one learns how to calm the body’s heightened state of anxiety and therefore allowing the mind to focus on healing rather than survival. Substance abuse is often an effective but maladaptive coping strategy for the emotional and physical stress responses that linger long after the traumatic experience is over. I assist clients who struggle with substances to discover the connection between their substance use and their trauma symptoms, and to develop new strategies for recovery that start with the body.

My approach is down to earth and pragmatic as every person's experiences are unique. Because of this, my eclectic approach focuses on your individual needs. I am a firm believer in empowerment. As such, I often encourage self-determination. Many of my clients have benefited from this approach. My focus is on the whole patient.

I am a therapist who helps clients move forward in their lives. People come to me to release old patterns of behavior in favor of a more positive future. I work well with those aged 11-60, with a special interest in those struggling with Depression & Anxiety due to Traumatic life events. I focus on past trauma as well as resolving issues that come up on a daily basis. Check out my website for more information and how to contact me. Telehealth is available.
