With a nursing career spanning since 2008, I have dedicated over 15 years to understanding the complexities of patient care. After earning my Master’s Degree in 2021, I transitioned into advanced psychiatric practice in 2022. Having served in both fast-paced inpatient units and collaborative outpatient clinics, I offer a well-rounded perspective on mental health. My background allows me to blend clinical expertise with a deeply rooted compassion for the human experience.
I’m Sarah, a therapist who helps people slow down, listen to their bodies, and reconnect with parts of themselves that have felt overlooked or misunderstood. My approach is warm, gentle, and trauma-informed, drawing from CBT, DBT, and body-based techniques. I especially enjoy working with neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ clients, those rebuilding trust in themselves and others. I aim to create a space that feels emotionally safe, shame-free, and even sprinkled with humor - where we can both sit in discomfort and find lightness along the way.
With over 40 years of experience as a clinical social worker, I hold a deep respect for the uniqueness of each person's story. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, which means I work with you to explore how past experiences may be shaping your current thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
I offer a safe supportive virtual space for older teens and adults who are ready to reflect, grow, and move toward lasting change. Whether you're navigation anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or high-conflict relationship dynamics, I bring warmth, insight, and seasoned clinical skill to help you better understand yourself and create a more fulfilling life.
With over 36 years in behavioral health, I've worked across inpatient, outpatient, corrections, education, and management settings — with children, adolescents, adults, and individuals navigating substance use and serious mental illness. But what drives me isn't my resume; it's this: mental illness is a bully, and no one deserves to be bullied. Nobody asked for it, and there is real courage in asking for help. I want to be a rock upon which mental illness breaks — helping people feel heard, seen, and able to enjoy life again. When I'm not working, you'll find me hiking, backpacking, or spending time with my dogs.


Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Glendale starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Therapists specialize in different areas — some focus on anxiety or depression, others on relationships, trauma, or life transitions. Knowing your primary concern can help you narrow your search. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience with your specific needs, and read their bio to understand their approach before booking.
With a large number of mental health providers practicing across Glendale and the surrounding West Valley, choosing one can feel overwhelming. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who offers CBT or another specific therapy style, someone available for virtual sessions, or a therapist located near your neighborhood. A free phone consultation can help you decide if a provider is the right match before you commit to a session.
Therapy in Glendale can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
