About
She believes that healing happens within the safety of a genuine human connection and aims to meet her clients where they are while gently challenging them toward growth, healing, and self-discovery. Sarah takes an integrative therapeutic approach, incorporating evidence-based modalities like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Somatic Processing. She is also trained in Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping), which can be especially powerful for regulating emotions and processing trauma in a body-centered way. Sarah works with clients who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or working through the impact of trauma, and she is committed to helping them break free from patterns that no longer serve them and equip them with practical tools to build a life that feels more grounded and worthy. Sarah is located in Birmingham, AL, and serves clients in the surrounding area.
