Reclaim your life, reclaim your mind.
I work with young adults who feel stuck—trapped by fear, overwhelmed by pressure, and boxed in by the invisible rules they were taught to follow.
Many of my clients come from rigid, high-control environments or have lived through experiences that made them question their worth, their voice, or their right to exist freely.
​
Even though they are deeply thoughtful, resilient, and driven, they often carry a heavy, quiet belief that something is wrong with them. They feel anxious and disconnected from their own sense of self. Beneath the surface is a constant push to perform, please, or prevent something bad from happening.
​
When people come to me, they’re exhausted. Every decision feels like a risk. They’ve spent so long trying to read the room, read people’s moods, and follow the unspoken rules that they’ve lost sight of what they actually want. Their inner world can feel chaotic, and their minds feel more like battlegrounds than safe havens.
​
Trusting themselves—and others—feels nearly impossible.
Somewhere along the way, they picked up the belief that everyone else got the manual for life, and they were left behind.
​
If this sounds familiar, I want you to know: there’s nothing wrong with you. Your brain has been doing its best to protect you. But you don’t have to live in survival mode forever.
You deserve to understand how your brain works so you can move through life with compassion, clarity, and confidence. You deserve relationships that feel safe, where you don’t have to shrink or hide who you are. You deserve to explore your values and make decisions that reflect you—not fear, not guilt, not obligation.
If you're ready to step into a life that feels free, grounded, and truly your own, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi there! I'm Sarah
Here's a small glimpse into who I am, both in and outside of the therapy room.
​​ Whether it’s through my therapy practice or my personal interests, I have a strong passion for entrepreneurship and am constantly inspired by the creativity and resilience involved in building something meaningful from the ground up. I truly believe in the power of following what sparks joy and passion. Outside of work, I’m often immersed in my creative hobbies—whether it’s candle making, photography, or interior design. I love staying busy and inspired by these hands-on, artistic pursuits.
​
I work with individuals who have ADHD (or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), trauma and those with personal histories of involvement with authoritarian groups and controlling relationships. (You might even call some of these experiences "cult-like"). I also treat a wide array of anxiety and depression diagnoses. I am passionate about helping people find freedom and confidence so that they can live their ideal lives - the lives that always felt just out of reach. I am lucky enough to have had counselors that empowered me and showed me paths towards healing and it's a privilege to do the same for others.
​
I went to The Ohio State University for my undergraduate degree in Human Development and Family Sciences and received my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Ashland University. My classes consisted of training in cultural competency, abnormal psychology, family systems, ethics, counseling theory and techniques, clinical diagnosis, and more. In 2018 I received my LPC (licensed professional counselor) licensure and in March of 2022 I received my LPCC (licensed professional clinical counselor) licensure. I am also trained in EMDR therapy.
