Work with Sara

Start with a free 15-minute intro call

No pitch, no pressure: Sara will ask what you're dealing with and tell you honestly whether coaching is the right next step.

This is for you if

  • ✓You need coaching about life issues and aren't interested in therapy. If you need to see a therapist, I can help you find one.

Probably not for you if

  • –If you are looking for therapy and want to work with me, I cannot also be your coach.

What clients typically get

  • →I try to help people find themselves, but that also requires the client to do the work. In coaching, I can help you find your goals, but the rest is up to you.

Background

About

I am a woman who is under the LGBTQIA umbrella and I hope to work with you if you are queer too. I am a therapist in South Burlington Vermont and decided to venture into coaching to assist people with finding themselves in groups and also individually using Internal Family Systems and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

I have a bachelors degree in Psychology and a masters degree in Clinical Mental Health and Counseling.

I love to sail and play and write music. I also am a photographer. I love to travel and enjoy summer and fall in New England.

What sets me apart

Why Choose Sara

I have lots of training as a therapist and have had a private practice for 3 years and worked as a drug and alcohol counselor for 3 years.

Methodology

My Coaching Approach

Groups are my focus but I also will work with individuals in coaching. I will do assessments to find out where to people are in a consultation and the will explain how I can help people thrive in life. I hope to keep groups small with no more than 10 or 12 people. In groups, I use IFS, DBT or both, depending on groups needs. With individuals, I take the same approach with assessments in the beginning and coming up with a plan for action to help the client with a specific end date, with consultation as well. Groups are 10 weeks in length and run 3 to 4 times per year.

Best Fit

Who I Help

I am looking for clients who are queer and believe they can benefit by learning how to find themselves with Internal Family Systems and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
