Welcome! I’m Sarita (she/they). A queer and neurodivergent trauma therapist, somatic coach, and disability advocate who has enjoyed focusing on empowering individuals and communities in reclaiming their voice to live meaningful lives of their choosing. For those finding themselves disconnected from their lives and relationships, unclear of what to do, wanting more from themselves, and lost on how to get there, I’m here to journey with you. In therapy we walk together in rediscovering your voice, deepen your understanding of your responses to life, identify your needs, and aligning your life with what you value.
My approach in providing trauma informed and harm-reductive care is to synthesize somatic awareness, internal family systems (parts integration), and narrative therapy to process unresolved trauma in the body and expand your emotional and mental capacity to engage more in your life.
In therapy I welcome you to bring your whole self as I will always do the same. In that we will co-create safe space for you to grow and learn more about you. If interested to see how we can work together, I invite you to contact me for a free 15-minute consultation.
