Hi, I'm Sara! I believe that connection is key to feeling less alone in this world. Getting curious about our past experiences and core values can help us to create a life that feels authentic and aligned with who we want to be. I enjoy supporting clients who are navigating life transitions, specifically the perinatal and postpartum periods. Additionally, I have specialized training in substance use disorders and have a heart for working with loved ones of those impacted by addiction to help restore balance, trust, and healing to the family system.

Nadine Cramer

Therapist

Virtual • Huron, OH


Life doesn't always fall apart all at once. Sometimes it shifts — slowly or suddenly — and you find yourself standing in the middle of something you didn't plan for, not quite sure how to find your footing again.

I work with adults — particularly women — who are navigating major life transitions: divorce, career change, grief and loss, identity shifts, postpartum challenges, relationship changes, and the complex process of figuring out who you are when everything around you has changed.

My name is Nadine Cramer, and I've been a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor for over 22 years. I'm licensed in both Ohio and Pennsylvania and see clients throughout both states via telehealth. Over the course of my career I've worked in inpatient psychiatric settings, outpatient community mental health, and private practice. I've facilitated groups for postpartum depression, anger management, alcohol and substance use recovery, and cognitive restructuring — and I've brought everything I've learned in those settings into my private practice work.
