Who am I?

​

 

Sarah earned her Master’s degree in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling from Naropa University. Her training centers on a holistic approach, integrating somatic, mindfulness, and contemplative practices. Drawing from her work in somatic healing, Sarah implements somatic and polyvagal based techniques along with parts and inner child work to help regulate your nervous system and guide you toward living in alignment with your authentic self. 

​

“I believe that true health and well-being is an inward, unfolding journey – a spiral that brings us closer to the wisdom held within our body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Each layer we explore offers new insights, reconnecting us with our most authentic Self. I hold the deep belief that you are inherently whole, just as you are. Experiences like trauma, conditioned patterns, and life’s challenges can sometimes obscure or disconnect us from this sense of completeness. In my experience, I’ve found profound transformation in life’s most challenging landscapes, where the only way out is through. My role is to hold space for you as you rediscover this inner knowing, embracing both your light and your shadow as essential parts of your unique path."
