Hello!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

I\u2019m Sarah. I\u2019m a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) specializing in anxiety and trauma. I provide a safe and supportive space for my clients to face their challenges, learn new skills, grieve losses, and grow in authenticity. I provide teletherapy to adults and teens throughout the states of Washington and Colorado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My style is warm and curiosity-driven. I like using humor and pop culture references when they feel right. I use various therapeutic strategies including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Narrative therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Above all, I strive to use each session to help my clients develop a better sense of their own worthiness. Trauma and mental health problems can make us feel small, broken, and unworthy. To me, having a sense of worthiness isn’t about ego or even self-esteem: it’s about seeing our own humanity and understanding that even our worst experiences can’t take it away. We are all worthy–of healing, wholeness, accountability, and authenticity. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Think we might be a good match?<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If I\u2019m not working, I\u2019m happiest when snuggling my two dogs, watching Star Trek (preferably DS9), or making pottery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
