Hi, I’m Sara.
I specialize in working with young adults navigating anxiety, stress, identity, and life transitions.
I know how overwhelming this stage of life can feel— and how easy it is to get stuck in your head.
Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating. It can feel like a space where you can finally exhale.
I blend and incorporate somatic work (Polyvagal), parts work (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT) throughout my work which is grounded in a nurturing and attachment-based approach.
I strive to be inclusive and culturally responsive and I want you to feel comfortable bringing your whole self to the process. I’m an LGBTQIA+ ally and believe all people should be accepted and loved for who they are.
If you’re ready to feel even a little more clear and grounded, let’s start with a free consultation.
My Background
My passion is supporting young people to create the life they want and deserve.
Growing up, dealing with depression, family conflict, and anxiety in a community that didn’t talk about mental health meant I had to figure a lot out on my own. That’s what inspired me to become a therapist—to help young people navigate the hard stuff with support and understanding.
I’ve worked with teens and young adults in restorative justice programs, youth shelters, and intensive outpatient settings, and helped shape policies and programs that impact statewide community mental health systems. I draw from a mix of approaches, including Polyvagal and somatic methods, and Internal Family Systems, and I’m always learning new ways to support growth.
When I’m not in therapy, you’ll find me reading, traveling, or exploring ideas about the world and our connections. My goal is simple: to help you see what the world already knows—you’re awesome, capable, and badass. I’d be honored to be part of your journey and watch you grow.

Meet Bob and Charlie
These little guys are my inspiration, motivation, and love. Bob’s a wannabe therapy dog, hilarious and my best buddy. Charlie is a new addition to our pack and still learning the ropes of life. They are great snugglers and experts in making you laugh and reminding you of the good things in life. Don’t be surprised if they make an appearance to say hello.
