My approach
At my practice, I believe that each person holds the power to heal within themselves. My role as a therapist is to guide you through the process of self-discovery, helping you unlock your inner strength and resilience. Together, we will work to build the skills and strategies you need to manage life’s challenges, reduce stress, and cultivate emotional well-being. My goal is to empower you to trust yourself and confidently face whatever life brings your way.

About
Hi, I’m Sara. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing telehealth therapy for adults in California and Hawaii. Services are provided weekday evenings via telehealth.
I have over 12 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families across online therapy, school-based mental health, crisis services, and community settings. My background includes working with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and parenting concerns, as well as supporting clients navigating complex school systems and mental health needs.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I strive to create a space where clients feel supported, understood, and able to show up authentically without judgment. I draw from cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, humanistic, and solution-focused approaches depending on each client’s needs and goals.
In addition to therapy services, I also provide clinical supervision for associate clinicians working toward licensure, as well as immigration evaluations.
