I can’t say enough good things about Sarah! From the very first session, she created such a safe, welcoming space that made it easy to open up. She’s incredibly compassionate, attentive, and insightful—always meeting me exactly where I’m at without judgment.

Written on Sep 14, 2025 after therapy with Sarah for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue

Sarah has helped me deal realistically with anxiety and she’s given me strategies to create positive thoughts, visualizations, and tools to manage stress. She is kind but also honest in a gentle way that helps you self evaluate and improve yourself. I have grown more confident and aware of my emotions.
