Sara is awesome. She listens and provides real feedback. She only holds back in order to gain perspective with regards to how you are feeling in the moment, but essentially gives you what you need. If you are looking for someone who will listen and help guide you in an honest way, and you are genuinely seeking help for something, see Sara.

Welcome.
I am a secular counselor with a humanistic approach, although I incorporate a variety of theories in my practice. My goal is to create a safe space for you to feel accepted, respected, and heard. I have a background working with trauma and shame and have found that being able to share the burden of your secrets without judgement is healing. This is one of my favorite poems,
“Darling,
You feel heavy because you are so full of truth.
Open your mouth more, let the truth exist
Somewhere other than inside your body.”
-Della Hicks-Wilson
I have worked in mental health since 2005 and have a strong foundation in managing mental health symptoms, personality disorders, and trauma including religious abuse. Other proclivities include LGBTQ+ population, those with high-functioning Autism, and the socially awkward. I am committed to being an ally and an advocate and strive to provide culturally and socially competent therapy by listening first, keeping an open mind, and continuing to educate myself.
This has been a tumultuous year and it may feel like we are going from crisis to crisis. Bryant McGill said, “Crisis is what suppressed pain looks like; it always comes to the surface. It shakes you into reflection and healing.” Whether you are at a place now of reflection and healing or just trying to survive the chaos, I am glad you are here, and I am glad to be here with you. I look forward to getting to know you.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Sara understands my needs, my functions, and my situations better than most people I’ve ever met or known for years, and always makes me feel valid in my feelings I share. I look forward to every session knowing that afterward I am going to feel completely heard and seen and without shame for my thoughts and feelings, which of course isn’t always true with our friends and confidantes, so it’s such an invaluable resource to be able to experience that with someone who understands and provides support and guidance.
She is the best.
Sara is... a breath of fresh air. She is exactly what I imagined a therapist to be when I signed up with Betterhelp. From lending a kind ear, to giving practical/supporting, yet true advice and allowing you a space to introspect...she is amazing all round and I feel so safe and listened too.
Sara has been such a welcome and valued addition to my life. We’ve only just begun but I have already learned a number of valuable things from her. I can’t wait to continue!
Sara is very helpful, understanding & able to identify the root of problems very effortlessly! She has a gift and I’m so grateful she’s been such an amazing therapist!

Sara is awesome, she really opens a space to make you feel heard and understood. On top of that she is just really cool!
Compassionate, easy to talk to, and understanding
I think Sara is an awesome counselor. She listens to everything and is super understanding and I feel like I could really form a good connection.
Sara listens to your needs then follows up with questions to get specific so she knows where to help you, i highly recommend her.
I have only been counselled by Sara for two weeks thus far, yet already feel more confident and comfortable in my concerns then I did prior to therapy. This has been a very positive experience so far, and have been very satisfied with Sara’s counselling style and expertise.
