Sarah Brois

Sarah Brois

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.7 mi away • Gilbert, AZ


I’m Sarah, a therapist who helps people slow down, listen to their bodies, and reconnect with parts of themselves that have felt overlooked or misunderstood. My approach is warm, gentle, and trauma-informed, drawing from CBT, DBT, and body-based techniques. I especially enjoy working with neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ clients, those rebuilding trust in themselves and others. I aim to create a space that feels emotionally safe, shame-free, and even sprinkled with humor - where we can both sit in discomfort and find lightness along the way.

BEYOND TALK THERAPY

Adlin Morales-Aguilú is a Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist and Psychological Advisor with over 18 years of clinical experience helping high-functioning individuals restore emotional stability, relational health, and personal clarity.

She works with professionals, leaders, and individuals navigating complex personal challenges including:

• trauma and unresolved emotional wounds

• sex addiction and intimacy disruption

• burnout and leadership fatigue

• depression and anxiety

• grief and major life transitions

• relational conflict and communication breakdown

• boundary and identity struggles

Many of Adlin’s clients are high-responsibility individuals who carry significant emotional weight while maintaining demanding careers, leadership roles, or public visibility.

While they may appear strong externally, internally they may be navigating exhaustion, relational strain, emotional disconnection, or unresolved trauma.

Adlin provides a confidential, highly professional therapeutic environment where clients can safely address these deeper challenges and move toward sustainable healing and personal restoration.

Her work focuses not only on symptom relief but on deep psychological repair, emotional regulation, and long-term personal transformation.
