Sessions with Sarah are collaborative and direct. Together, we’ll create a space where you can be honest about what’s hard — and trust that you’ll feel more grounded by the time we’re done. There’s no pretense here, and no pressure to have all the answers before we start. We’ll work together to understand how your past experiences and current patterns are shaping the way you feel and move through the world. Depending on what you’re working through, we might use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you notice the connection between your thoughts and emotions, or DBT skills to help you manage intense feelings with more steadiness. When it fits, we might use Motivational Interviewing — an open, non-judgmental way of exploring what’s getting in the way of the changes you want to make. Your care here is never one-size-fits-all. Some sessions might involve a structured exercise or homework you’ll take with you; others might call for something different entirely. What matters most is that the work we do together reflects your story and what you actually need right now.
