Lived & Professional Insight
16+ years as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. 20+ years working with teens & families. This work comes from training and a personal understanding of what complicated relationships leave behind.
I also offer a focused specialty.
Mother Wound Healing
One focus of this practice is ADULT WOMEN healing from complicated mother-daughter relationships, anxious attachment & trauma. That focus means faster understanding and deeper work.
Hello! I’m Sara, LMHC.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor serving virtual clients across Washington State. I bring 30+ years of experience supporting teens, young adults, adults and families through anxiety, big transitions, and relationship challenges. I create a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood.
Recently, I added a specialty to my services: mother wound healing. After 16+ years as a therapist, I noticed so many of the women I work with carry the same weight: a complicated relationship with a mother that is still shaping how they see themselves years later. I understand it professionally AND personally, and that combination is the reason I do this work.

Common Questions People Ask
-
I'm an out-of-network provider, so I don't bill insurance directly. Many clients use their out-of-network benefits, and I'm happy to provide the paperwork (a superbill) to help you seek reimbursement. In some cases, I’m able to submit claims to your insurance company for you.
-
It is! Research consistently shows online therapy works as well as in-person for anxiety, trauma & relational concerns. Many people find it easier to open up from a space where they already feel comfortable.
-
Everywhere in the state. As an online therapist in Washington State licensed statewide, I see clients from Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Vancouver and smaller towns, too. All you need is a private space and an internet connection.
-
I don’t. I work with older adolescents & young adults (16+), adult men and women, and families. For younger children, I'd be glad to point you toward someone who specializes in that age group.
-
EMDR is a well-established therapy that helps your brain reprocess painful memories so they lose their grip. It's especially helpful for relational & childhood trauma. We'll talk through whether it fits your goals before starting.
-
Please fill out the contact form. I read every message personally, and I'll reach out to see if we're a good fit and find a time that works for us to meet.
Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
