Hi there! Welcome to my page. I'll keep it short, because you probably have enough on your plate already.
I am here to help you in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental way using the skills I've picked up through school, work, and just trying to navigate life! It can be overwhelming, but you do not have to do it alone. Bring your worries to the table and we will come up with a plan that fits your goals, needs, and lifestyle. You've already taken a big step by coming this far.
I believe that we are complex beings and are not defined by a diagnosis, our past, or the challenges we face. I believe in building a foundation of trust and safety, and letting you set the pace while helping you get out of your own way. It is a delicate balance, and I understand how hard it can be. I would be happy to talk with you further to see if I may be a good fit for you!

Sarah is everything you want in a therapist: she’s super easy to talk to, genuinely engaged throughout our sessions and helpful with providing both comfort and solutions with every interaction. She’s a gem and I’m so grateful we matched.

There are no gimmicks or quick fixes when it comes to Sarah, this is an individual who is as compassionate as she is realistic and down to earth. You feel as though the vulnerability and candor between her and yourself is comparable to being around a good friend, but she is entirely professional and has a very clear goal in helping you work through whatever it is you need to. It's a judgment free, safe, and practical environment that feels so much less daunting with Sarah guiding you through the trenches of healing. The thing I admire most about her is that she is a true champion for your well being, and truly validates every fear, concern, and anxiety you voice.
