Meet Sara
I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Sociology from Texas A&M University, a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Indiana Wesleyan University, and additional coursework from Universidad de la Mancha in Spain and Focus on the Family Institute. I enjoy hiking, kayaking, and spending time with family and friends.
Partners who feel unsupported or unseen in close relationships
Navigating conflicting parenting styles
Managing anxiety that disrupts daily life and connection
Anxiety and grief counseling
You may find yourself:
- Feeling distant from your partner, unsure how to reconnect
- Overwhelmed by parenting and second-guessing yourself daily
- Carrying anxiety or grief that’s affecting your sleep, energy, or relationships
- Longing to feel like yourself again but unsure where to start
- Caught in repeating patterns or emotional cycles that leave you stuck
- Trying to make sense of your faith while managing real emotional pain
What You Can Expect From Me:
In our work together, you can expect a space that’s steady, respectful, and real. I bring a calm, collaborative presence—and I won’t just nod and smile. I’ll be honest with you, ask meaningful questions, and help you explore what’s really driving the patterns or pain you’re facing.
I use practical tools rooted in research-backed approaches like Gottman and Family Systems therapy, and I always tailor my approach to your specific goals. Whether we’re unpacking relationship tension, parenting stress, or personal anxiety, I’ll help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
If your faith is important to you, I’m happy to integrate that into our work. And if not, that’s okay too—this is your space to be fully seen and supported.
