Hi, my name is Sara! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of experience working alongside individuals as they navigate their mental health journeys.

Hello! I specialize in women’s mental health, focusing on hormone-related concerns such as PMDD, infertility, loss, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause. Combining my background as a Certified Nurse-Midwife (CNM) and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I offer a compassionate, holistic approach tailored to each woman's unique experience. I am dedicated to helping women navigate these significant life transitions and hormonal challenges with understanding, support, and effective strategies. If you're seeking expert guidance and empathetic care, I’m here to support you on your journey to wellness.

I'm an LCSW practicing in Indiana, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, Alabama, Virginia, and Illinois. I specialize prenatal, childhood, and adolescent trauma, OCD, eating disorders, and ARFID. I currently see clients from age 2y through adulthood. I'm available for telehealth services and offer virtual psychotherapy and play therapy sessions.

I believe that a strong, authentic therapeutic relationship is at the heart of meaningful change. I am a licensed therapist who has worked in a variety of settings, supporting people through some of life’s most difficult moments. I have experience working with children, adolescents, college students, and adult women. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported—while also encouraged to grow.

My goal as a therapist is to help people feel less alone in whatever they may be facing. You may feel overwhelmed by life or perhaps trapped in it. Either way, there is a path forward.

I am an LCSW with a Master's of Social Work degree and have been in field over 12 years.
