About Sara
Her approach centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can share thoughts and feelings. Sessions are intended to let people talk through what matters to them and build practical ways to cope. Sara works with a range of concerns including trauma, grief, mood disorders, ADHD, and midlife crisis issues.
Sara draws on several therapeutic methods to tailor work to each person. She uses mindfulness exercises to help clients stay present and notice patterns of thought. She also incorporates psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape current habits and relationships.
For relationship-related goals she uses techniques from the Gottman Method to improve communication and reduce repeated conflict. When trauma is part of the picture, she may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, to address difficult memories and their impact.
She emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. Clients set priorities and pace the steps toward change. Practical tools and small experiments between sessions are commonly used to build new ways of coping and relating.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used to help reduce the emotional charge of distressing memories. It involves focused attention and guided processing that can ease how past events affect daily life. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and reducing patterns that lead to repeated fights, using clear exercises to practice new ways of interacting. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help people notice thoughts and feelings without immediately reacting, which can reduce anxiety and improve focus.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with clients to decide what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can include trying different methods and adjusting the plan as progress is made, so the work feels collaborative rather than prescriptive.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also let people use techniques learned in sessions in the places where they live and work, helping new habits take hold between meetings.
