About
Hello my name is Sara, I am able to see adults and teens age 14 years and above. Through my own experience as a client, I learned how important it is to feel safe and supported by a therapist, but also empowered to evolve. Thus, my goal is to meet you with an authentic and empathetic approach to create a healing therapeutic relationship. My clients have overcome significant traumas, substance abuse, anxiety, depression, and have learned new ways to cope with the stress of daily life. I view the work done in therapy as a collaborative process guided by your goals.
I have been in the therapy field for over a decade and I am trained in trauma-focused Cognitive Processing Therapy, DBT, CBT, motivational interviewing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Some of my specialties include disordered eating, substance abuse recovery, PTSD therapy, work with teens, LGBTQ+ support, and I am able to treat adolescents and adults
I believe that healing and change happens through interpersonal connection. I respect and value each individual who walks through my door for the entire person they are, not just the symptoms they are struggling with. It takes a great deal of courage and vulnerability to begin the journey you're on. You can book directly with me at: www.wwcpdx.com
