Hey! How’s it going?

I’m glad you’re here

You’re probably just feeling like enough is enough and something has to give. You’re ready to start taking care of you but you’re not exactly sure how to start.

Hi! My name is Sarah. I’m a millennial therapist, eldest daughter, recovering people-pleaser and introvert. I know how it feels to be more concerned about everyone else rather than myself and finally getting to a point where I knew something needed to change.

It can be so difficult to decide to make changes, especially if it means saying ‘no’ or advocating for your wants and needs.

I work with people just like you, who are struggling to articulate their wants and needs or maybe needing help in discovering what those even are. Something feels off, you’re exhausted, irritated, maybe even angry. Something needs to change and it can be hard to focus on yourself when you’re worrying about everyone else.

I came to this work because of my own experiences and how helpful therapy was, and still is, to me. I’m here to help you understand what you want and need and to build practical tools and strategies to help those wants and needs be met.

I approach therapy with humor and warmth. No clinical language just a real human connection. I’m here to help guide you on your journey to better understanding yourself.

While therapy can certainly be serious at times, I love to use humor and take the age old adage of “laughter is the best medicine” to heart!

Since doing teletherapy, no one ever gets to see how cute my shoes are in session (if I’m even wearing them that is)!
