"Nothing changes if nothing changes. While it may seem easier to sit back and wait for the changes we desire to happen TO us, all it takes is one step to bring you closer to living the life you deserve"

how she works
Sara has an extensive background supporting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, familial and relationship issues, and fertility challenges. Her style of therapy is authentic and honest, and she ensures that her clients feel understood, empowered and clear on their next steps towards achieving their goals.
Life can be full of uncertainty and Sara recognizes that making decisions filled with ambiguity or "what if?" can interfere with our ability to find fulfillment in our daily lives. Using psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, Sara works with her clients to gain an understanding of the root of those questions, constructively confront their concerns, and reframe these thoughts to promote positive thinking and autonomy.
Sara focuses on self-empowerment and reflection in order to discover your most confident self. She believes that self-love is key to all relationships, and she will support you through the highs and lows that inevitably occur to help you build a healthy dynamic with those who mean the most to you.
Using a holistic approach, Sara guides her clients to identify and build on their strengths and skills to overcome life’s many challenges. Sara will empower you to take calculated risks, discover your confidence, and take control of your life in a way that feels honest and true to you.
