Sarah's original four-pillared therapeutic approach, "BEST" (Basic Enneagram and Somatic IFS Therapy) can support your wellness and healing by creating a safe and validating space for individuals to explore and understand their heightened sensitivity and emotional experiences. Drawing from the most effective evidence-based modalities for treating trauma such as divorce, death, and disaster, this approach focuses on helping empaths develop healthy boundaries, self-care practices, and coping strategies to manage overwhelming emotions and empathic absorption, and can address any related challenges, such as setting clear interpersonal boundaries, managing empathy fatigue, and fostering self-compassion.
Sarah's style of ADHD treatment aims to address the emotional, behavioral, and cognitive aspects of the disorder. Through various therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or mindfulness-based techniques, individuals with ADHD can learn practical strategies to improve time management, organizational skills, impulse control, and attention regulation. Sarah also provides a supportive environment for individuals to explore the emotional impact of ADHD, address co-occurring conditions, and develop self-esteem and resilience.
Anxiety
Relationships & Reunification
Sarah understands that any and all relationships can be a source of both joy and pain. Whether romantic, parent-child, work-related, familial or professional, if you are struggling with relationship issues and/or communication conflicts, Sarah can help you. Sarah is well-versed in translating emotional messages between dyads and among groups. Whether dealing with a present conflict or simply being proactive, through her skillful application of IFS, Somatics, Enneagram and MBTI(R), Sarah will guide your self-discovery, your reconnection with your true self, and help you develop the skills and insights you need to build stronger, healthier relationships and find greater satisfaction in your life.
If you are experiencing anxiety, Sarah can help you develop the tools and strategies you need to manage your symptoms and find peace of mind. As an masterful practitioner of the Enneagram and Internal Family Systems, Sarah combines her empathy with manageable education as to the impact of physicial, specifically gut-immune-brain health on mental health and wellness. Sarah strongly encourages clients in treatment for anxiety to consult and work with functional medicine specialists in order to meaningfully address the client's symptoms and suffering. To simplifiy this process, Sarah shares referrals and resources to accomplish this aspect of treatment. Whatever you are experiencing, you are not alone, you deserve to feel well, and together, you and Sarah will walk through your journey to genuine wellness.
Adolescence is arguably the most difficult and confusing time of life. The unexpected physical, social, emotional, and mental changes can occur on a daily, even moment by moment, basis, and thus can be extraordinarily overwhelming to a young person, especially one with identified exceptionalities (neurodivergence, giftedness, etc.). The intense emotions that accompany this overwhelm are often so distressing that young people may cope by shutting down and/or lashing out. These extremes lead to a separation from self and authentic experience of emotion in real time, frequently resulting in depression, anxiety, or other mental health complications. The remedy? Re-engaging with the true sellf and learning to feel and express emotions as they occur, and communicate those experiences to a safe person who sees the best in the child. With years of experience counseling teens in the public schools, Sarah is highly skilled at working with young people and loves every minute of it. Sarah provides a safe and supportive space where adolescents can explore their feelings, develop coping skills, and build a foundation for a healthy, fulfilling life.
Depression
If you are struggling with depression, Sarah, will listen with understanding and empathy, and help you connect with skilled and experienced practitioners (ie, functional medicine doctors, nutritionists, acupuncturists, spiritual coaches, etc.) you may need to achieve complete healing. Whatever the situtation you are facing, no matter how long you have been suffering, you are not alone, and Sarah will work with you step by step to find total health and healing. Sarah' therapeutic style provides a safe and supportive emotional space, whether in person or remotely in the comfort of your home, where you can explore your feelings and develop the tools you need to heal.
