Hello, and welcome! I'm Sakura Pate, MSW, a trauma-informed therapist dedicated to creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered. I became a social worker in 2013, supporting individuals through a variety of life challenges across community and behavioral health settings. After earning my Master of Social Work in 2023, I expanded my practice to provide individual and couples counseling, bringing together years of social work experience with evidence-based, trauma-informed care.

I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, attachment wounds, emotional regulation difficulties, stress, and self-esteem concerns. I also have experience providing LGBTQIA+ affirming care and am committed to creating an inclusive environment where every client feels respected, valued, and safe to show up as their authentic self.

I believe healing happens through connection, self-awareness, and compassion. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your relationship, I'm honored to walk alongside you as you build resilience, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change.
