About me

I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in Colorado with over 7 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, sexuality, and anger management. I have also helped many people who have experienced sexual trauma, physical trauma and emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. It is important for me to understand my clients as holistic people. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client-centered, psychodynamic and solutions-focused counseling. I will tailor our sessions and objectives to your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Love working with Sara. She’s really helped ground me and make me feel normal and good about myself.

Written on Feb 18, 2021 after therapy with Sara for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, and anger management

Sara has been helping me to work through childhood traumas related to growing up with a narcissistic parent and the low self-esteem that produces, and I can definitely say I am in a better place than I was months ago. Sara really knows her stuff, she’s a great listener, her insights are spot on, she is very empathetic and supportive. She is a great person to sort of bounce ideas off of, and talking with her has helped me gain much-needed clarity about my negative self-concepts and how to move forward with my life. I’m very grateful to have been matched with Sara!

Sara is hands down the best counselor I have ever had. She has always been insightful and extremely helpful. I have made more progress with her in 3 months than I have with anyone else. I'm working through trying and developing coping mechanisms for dealing with everyday life.

For the last few weeks Sara has been helping me navigate some big topics that were becoming overwhelming in my day-to-day life. Her attentive listening and gentle approach makes it very easy to share with her. She has helped me re-examine past events with poignant question asking and care. I am so happy to have been paired with Sara.
