Do you long for more fulfillment in your relationships? Are you struggling with the life transition of a new baby or a loss? Do you want to explore or affirm your gender and need support navigating those changes? Are you the partner of a transitioning person? I offer individual and relationship therapy on a wide array of topics. You are the expert in your life, and my goal is to create an accepting, non-judgmental environment, which offers you the opportunity to explore patterns and behaviors that no longer benefit you. My passion is helping people recognize that they are their own greatest resource.

I have experience working with people who identify a wide range of limitations from personality, mood, anxiety (i.e., Obsessive-Compulsive disorder (OCD), Hair pulling, Social anxiety, Panic disorder), and those working through a traumatic experience(s). I see clients across the lifespan and value building a strong therapeutic relationship to support the therapy journey.

Life is ever-changing and evolving in manifold ways. We all go through life changes and unforeseen roadblocks that create imbalance within our minds. It is quite empowering to seek out help when our inner self wants to “talk” and respect that need. This is where I come in as a vessel of support to aide in your journey of knowing your inner self and what challenges or changes you might be going through. Therapy can be a rewarding experience when your inner world (feelings, thoughts, emotions) changes positively to reflect your outer world and relationships.

My name is Sarah Adler and I am a Licensed Psychotherapist at Synergos Counseling. I have been working within the mental health field for over four years. I have received training in Interpersonal Process, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and trauma-informed care. I have experience using this training while working with adolescents and adults in individual and group counseling settings, including via telehealth, who are struggling with a wide range of concerns. Some of these include mood disorders, anxiety disorders including OCD, eating concerns, and trauma-related disorders.

As a person-centered clinician, I believe every individual can benefit from self-exploration in counseling. There is chaos all around us. And in my experience, inner peace is found in human connection. Therapeutically, I strive to create a safe space where you can express yourself freely-- without judgment. I will sit with you in your pain, confusion, and all the discomfort that accompanies change. My goal is to validate your experiences and to help you make use of collaborative tools to clarify your true self, strengths, and goals. We will celebrate your growth together.

As a counselor, I utilize a family systems approach in my work with adolescents and their parents in order to assist with restructuring of communication so that individuals can feel heard, respected and have their ideas validated. I also work hard to eliminate cultural biases and meet the client's where they are based on their individual needs. Additionally, I began my training in couples counseling and continue to support couples in appropriately communicating their needs as they develop mutually supportive behaviors together. Another area of focus I enjoy is assisting members of the L.G.B.T.Q community with their specific needs.

Welcome. These are strange and anxiety provoking times indeed. Whether you're isolated in your home away from family and loved ones or feeling trapped inside with too many loved ones needing your attention, these days life can feel lonely, confusing, boring, and overwhelming all within a 24 hour span. My goal right now is to help you foster connection, headspace, and some sense of nurturing calm. I will work with you to foster a safe, empowering relationship within which to reconnect to what's most important and to yourself as we ride out this period of seclusion, fear, and the unknown.

As a therapist, I can understand the anxiety and fear surrounding your decision to seek therapy for either yourself; your child or loved one. Life is full of ups and downs, and at times we need support on our journey. Whether you are struggling with your child's tantrums, concerned about a scary incident, struggling as a new parent, want to stop yelling, or need some support as you navigate a major life transition or stressor, I can help. You can feel at peace with your life. It is not too late to get the support you and your family deserve.

"When we struggle with Stress, Anxiety, and Trauma it can interfere with our relationships and ability to function. I work with adults, teenagers, couples, and families, to work through these difficulties in a way that supports their needs. My goal is to provide a welcoming space where people feel safe, heard, that is inclusive, and intersectional. A space that welcomes folks with a variety of identities, experiences, and perspectives whether that is as an individual or within the context of their relationships."

I decided to become a therapist because of my passion for helping others. My mission is to help others heal and grow. When people have a safe space to explore their concerns, the possibilities for healing and growth are endless. It is an honor for me to provide that space and empower others to identify the next steps in their journey.

As parents/guardians, we want to see our children succeed, no matter what it takes. When our children struggle, we struggle as well. These struggles can lead to frustration, especially when we are not able to pinpoint the root cause. Too often, when children present with complex behaviors, and/or varying levels of abilities/intellect, they are mis-understood, or even mis-diagnosed. If you are feeling lost as a parent, are experiencing challenges navigating the school system, or question the narrative regarding your child, please know you are not alone. I am here to help.

I offer warm, compassionate relational and individual therapy. I particularly love helping to strengthen relationships, improve sexual intimacy and function, and explore creativity or identity. Do you wish your intimate connections were stronger? Are you struggling with who you are, want to be, or are expected to be? Do you have health issues, belief systems, or relationship challenges that create blocks to sexual expression? Are you experiencing a loss of passion or sense of disconnect with someone you love? Does your life feel less creative or zesty than you would like? I would love to help!
