My name is Sara. I have been working in the field for over 7 years. I am currently finishing up my PhD in Mindful Andrological practices. I consider myself a very down-to-earth, gentle, and holistic person.
Feeling off, overwhelmed, or stuck? You deserve support as you work through this part of your life ❤️ I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, stress, and other common human experiences, such as grief and loss, changes in mood, and major life changes.
My practice is the result of 7+ years of experience helping people across private practice, outpatient community mental health, correctional settings, and intensive outpatient care. I use evidence-based strategies to help clients build practical coping skills, manage difficult emotions, and navigate challenges in a way that fits their life and circumstances.
It’s normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure about the next step. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll work through challenges at your pace and help you move towards healing, feeling balanced, and gaining a clearer sense of direction.

Many of the struggles that bring us to therapy—anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, self-doubt, or feeling stuck—have deeper roots than we realize. Sometimes these patterns develop through painful experiences, major life transitions, or family systems that taught us to prioritize others, question ourselves, or adapt in ways that no longer serve us. Therapy offers the opportunity to understand these patterns and create lasting change.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the spouse of a retired Army Veteran, I've spent much of my adult life living in different parts of the country and world, continually building community and connection wherever life led. Those experiences deepened my understanding of resilience, belonging, and the many ways people adapt through change, loss, and transition. I bring that perspective into my work, creating a warm, compassionate, and collaborative space where individuals, couples, and families feel genuinely seen and understood.
Together, we'll work to understand the deeper patterns shaping your life, strengthen your relationships, and help you move toward a more authentic, fulfilling way of living.
