Hi, I'm Sara.
For over 16 years, I've helped individuals and couples navigate some of life's most difficult and transformative seasons—relationship struggles, betrayal, divorce, anxiety, attachment wounds, coparenting, major transitions, and the complicated realities of being human.
I know that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable. Many of my clients arrive after spending months—or even years—trying to make sense of things on their own, or feeling like therapy hasn't worked for them in the past.
They've read the books, talked with friends, and worked hard to create change, yet still find themselves feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about what comes next.
My goal is to create a space where you feel deeply understood, lovingly challenged, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and self-trust.
My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I don't believe therapy should be limited to simply talking about problems. Together, we'll explore the patterns, beliefs, emotional reactions, and relationship dynamics that may be keeping you stuck while developing practical tools and new ways of relating that support lasting change.
In addition to my clinical work, I have spent years studying and teaching the science of healthy relationships, attachment, nervous system regulation, effective communication, emotional resilience, and personal transformation.
My work integrates evidence-based approaches including EFT, CBT, Gottman Method, Narrative Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, somatic interventions, attachment-focused therapy, and neuroscience-informed approaches to healing and growth.
Whether you're working through a relationship challenge, navigating a major life transition, rebuilding after betrayal, or simply longing to feel more grounded and connected in your life, therapy can provide a place to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and move forward with intention.
I'd be honored to support you in that process.
