“One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.” Abraham Maslow Perhaps you're feeling down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, aren't satisfied with how you're managing stressors, feeling burned out or depleted, or feel worn out by past experiences and difficult to bear emotions. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support and guidance from a well versed, compassionate and non-judgmental perspective. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery. In my sessions I promote improved awareness of the processes that lead to a sense of feeling stuck, skills to meaningfully improve your relationships, and transformation in the way you think and respond to your experiences. You will find a strong focus on restorative techniques used to soothe the nervous system. Teaching the skills necessary to calm our physiological as well as our cognitive responses lead to the most balanced outcomes and meaningful change.

Hi, my name is Sara. I often work with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by mental health challenges. There is something getting in the way of a more meaningful life. This can show up as an addiction, OCD, anxiety, low self-esteem, or another mental health concern. I believe that everyone has the natural drive and ability to live a fulfilling life, with the right supports and resources. My approach is rooted in the belief that therapy is not about "fixing" but about learning to reconnect with parts of ourselves that we once had to push aside. Change cannot happen without safety. I seek to create an environment where you can show up exactly as you are. We will work together to explore old patterns with compassion and curiosity and create new patterns in the present moment. We will try to understand the roadblocks to a meaningful life, while honoring that there are wisdom and pain in old patterns. Therapy is not an easy process, but my hope is that you feel empowered and challenged to meet your goals in a safe environment. You are the expert of your life, and I will go at the pace that makes sense for you and your nervous system. If you are ready, I would love the opportunity to walk alongside you on your healing journey.

If you’re here, it might be because stress and worry have started to take over your daily life. Maybe your mind is constantly racing with “what ifs,” feelings of self-doubt, or uncertainty about what to do next. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. My passion is helping people find relief from anxiety and rediscover a sense of calm and confidence. We’ll start by focusing on what helps you feel more stable and grounded, so those overwhelming thoughts and feelings don’t have as much control. From there, we’ll work toward your bigger goals, whether that’s navigating relationships, healing from past experiences, or just feeling more like yourself again. I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 11 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families in private practice and university settings. I specialize in supporting people through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, trauma, self-esteem issues, and grief. Finding the right therapist can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re curious about working together, I’d love to connect. Let’s set up a free consultation to talk through any questions you have and see if we’re the right fit.

I believe that black lives matter, love is love, science is real, women rights are human rights, I believe healthcare is a human right and not a privilege and every BODY is deserving of love/support/healing. I believe that we are made of many parts and that our overall wellness cannot exist without mental clarity. I value therapy for my own personal self, and as a result, I value and cherish the opportunity to be a part of someone else's therapy journey. ​ I provide a trauma informed and culturally sensitive space where I utilize my trainings in EMDR, biofeedback and psychotherapy with children, teens, and adults. My areas of expertise include trauma/PTSD/Complex PTSD, anxiety, general life stress/changes, and stress management.

One of my passions is assisting students transitioning to college and other life transitions. My work with students with mental health disabilities in high school and helping them move beyond learning emotional regulation, executive functioning and other skills has been very rewarding. Many students deal with anxiety and stress and there is no reason to deal with this on your own.

Raleigh, NC

Therapy is not only helpful for treating mental illness or the most severe traumas; it can help with every aspect of life, from every day worries to the most devastating situations. My work for the past 10 years has involved helping children, teens, adults, and families find healing in difficult situations. This is my life's purpose, and I plan to continue this path by furthering my knowledge and providing high quality care to my clients. I have experience working with a broad range of disorders, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma, just to name a few.  I use a holistic approach in my work, where I consider not only mental factors, but also physical and spiritual factors. I combine aspects of traditional talk therapy with non-traditional approaches, including breathe therapy and meditation. I am certified in Eco-Systemic Family Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Empowering others to become leaders in their lives, no matter their life circumstances, is my goal for everyone who I am privileged to meet and work with. I welcome anyone who is in need of extra tools to help them along on their life journey. I look forward to joining you on your path to healing and accomplishing your goals.
