Move from stress & overwhelm to a more compassionate sense of self.
I apply relational neuroscience to therapy – helping you connect to yourself and what matters most.
I believe we’re in this together.
I believe your experience makes sense.
So much of our present-day lives are decided by what we learned in our past — it’s like our brains are wearing history-colored glasses. In fact, we’re influenced by our past in every single moment we experience.
Because my approach is grounded in this bit of neuroscience, I trust that your feelings and experiences make sense—even if the connection isn’t yet apparent. And I know that the change you want is possible.
Find the space & support you need to change how you carry it all.
I offer individual psychotherapy for adults seeking depth work and real change.
My approach is personal, flexible and focused on helping you stay with your goals. We’ll go well beyond coffee-talk conversation, as I take the investment you’re making in yourself seriously.
(Don’t worry, this doesn’t mean we won’t laugh from time to time too!)
Hi, I’m Sara.
M.A., LPC
You may be here because life doesn’t look like you hoped it would. Maybe you’re grieving a loss, or maybe you’re facing a difficult, unfair reality. Or, perhaps you’re looking for a kinder relationship with yourself. During our time together, I’ll see you through the hard stuff while helping you unlearn the internal messages that have kept you feeling alone and stuck.
Whatever you’re facing, I’ll meet you there — with honesty, compassion and humor. I’ll lean on my training in relational neuroscience as well as my own lived experience, because I’m the same person in the therapy room as I am outside of it.
The story you tell
yourself matters.
While there may be parts of you that feel broken, you’re not a project to “fix.” Here are a few ways we can work together to help you live more authentically.
1. Making sense of your history. Exploring early experiences and the meanings you made growing up in a difficult or painful family; getting to the root of guilt, shame and anxiety.
2. Helping life feel as good inside as it looks on paper: Dealing with self-doubt, burnout and mental overload; setting boundaries and moving away from perfectionism and people-pleasing.
3. Feeling more okay with life as it is. Navigating difficult realities and life transitions with patience and compassion.
