Meet Sarah

I am a warm and genuine therapist who shares a little about myself while remaining competent and professional. I enjoy exploring relationships, life challenges, and taking time to slow down and reflect. I particularly like working with LGBTQ+ clients, young adults—especially young women—and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and the world. I also enjoy supporting healthcare and mental health professionals. Book a session with me and see if we feel like a good fit!
