Hi, I'm Sara! I'm an individual, relationship, and sex therapist in the Philadelphia area. I strive to help folks foster self-love, promote self-discovery, and strengthen their relationships by taking a collaborative approach to therapy that encourages problem-solving as a team while providing clients with skill-building exercises to make actionable change in their lives and relationships. As an LGBTQ+ affirming, diverse-body affirming, sex positive, poly-friendly, and kink aware therapist, I welcome all identities and relationship styles. I am passionate about providing a safe and judgement free space for authentic self-expression!
I specialize in improving intimacy, trust, and communication in relationships. Common areas that I focus on in my work include relational conflict, insecure attachment, infidelity, sexual desire, sexual dysfunction, nonmonogamy, kink/BDSM, adult family dynamics, relationship anxiety / OCD, and, as a cancer survivor, challenges from cancer and its treatment.
Every individual and relationship is unique and deserves therapy that caters to their specific needs. I offer free 15-minute Zoom consultations for any questions you may have about me and my process. If you are a couple looking to dip your toes into therapy, I also offer a discounted 3-session workshop. I look forward to meeting you!
