Welcome to my practice, One Step Forward Counseling, PLLC.! My name is Sara Bell and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have been working in the therapy field for over 9 years. I have worked with children, teens, young adults, and adults.
I enjoy helping those who are willing to learn about themselves, those around them, and how to utilize resources and tools to meet their own needs. Life can be stressful and overwhelming. We could all benefit from non-judgmental support to help us navigate life's ups and downs. Please allow me to take the next step toward your healing and/or goals with you.
I primarily use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy with my clients. Identifying the connection between thoughts, feelings, and our actions. Additionally, I utilize brainspotting to support working through trauma and various emotions. I work with children through adults on various issues.
I would love to help you on your journey, call/text or email me to schedule your first session and/or ask any question you have. Text is the best way to contact me. If you call, please leave your name, best number to reach you at and a brief message.
