Great to meet you!

Hi! I’m Sara. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor serving clients in Tennessee. I specialize in helping women whose fear of not being perfect is keeping them chronically anxious, burned out, and relentlessly self-critical.

My approach to therapy

My clients can expect to be met with warmth and understanding, and for each session to be a safe place where they are accepted just as they are. They can expect to be affirmed in their struggles while also gently challenged to see different perspectives and dig deeper to better understand themselves.

What you can expect from me

After working with me, my clients have a strong arsenal of coping skills that help them navigate life's stressors with confidence. They are able to speak compassionately to themselves and chase their goals without constant self-doubt and criticism. They can rest without guilt, and they feel energized to do the things that matter most to them. Reach out today; I'd love to help you.
