    Congratulations on taking this step towards lasting change! To have landed right here, right now, part of you is ready to do what's necessary to heal your past. Together, we'll create the safety necessary to move through pain and into the freedom for you to take charge of your life. My style is compassionate & collaborative. I'm also a strong Ally, and work well with diverse adults to move from surviving into thriving. I've also worked extensively with helping professionals: counselors, MDs, PAs, nurses, OT/PT/STs, LMTs and absolutely love it! Mentoring MSWs is also a mission of mine, and I offer licensure and billing supervision and business consulting. My passion definitely lies in helping others access and develop their best, healthiest selves!

    Hi, my name is Sara. I have a beautiful family of 7 and have been with my life partner for 23 years. Our relationship started off as friends and evolved into becoming a blended family. We have faced many adversities together and continue to this day, while the commitment we made is unbreakable. We have two adult sons, both living their best life growing and learning. We were blessed and surprised to become pregnant with twin boys born in 2017. This was a miracle as my husband and I were not trying and 10 years later our boys are here
