Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Sarah Todd, and I’m so glad you’re here. I know that navigating the challenges of parenthood, perinatal loss, or living in a world that wasn’t built for your brain can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to go through it alone. My passion is helping people like you find support, healing, and hope.

My approach to therapy

As a therapist, I work with people navigating some of life’s most vulnerable and transformative experiences. My practice is rooted in deep compassion, trauma-informed care, and an unwavering belief in your worth—no matter what burdens you may be carrying.

Therapy with me is not about fixing what is “broken”—because you are not broken. It’s about making space for the complexity of your emotions, honoring your lived experience, and helping you move through pain with support, intention, and care. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental presence where you can safely share your truth, even (and especially) when it feels messy, contradictory, or overwhelming.

What you can expect from me

Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to hold it all together or wear a mask. It’s a place where every part of you is welcome; especially the parts that feel overwhelmed, ashamed, angry, or afraid. My goal is to create an environment of warm acceptance and compassionate curiosity, where you feel safe enough to explore your emotions without judgment and supported enough to begin the work of healing.

I approach therapy as a collaborative process: you are the expert on your life, and I bring clinical tools, insight, and guidance to help you move toward the changes you want to see. Together, we’ll build a therapeutic relationship that honors your lived experience while also gently challenging patterns that no longer serve you.
