Counseling

New Middletown, TELEHEALTH

Sarah believes that each client has the ability to be successful and utilize an individualistic, strength-based approach in order to highlight their unique purpose as a grounds for positive change. It is her belief that everyone has an individual purpose and that we are all meant to succeed within that purpose. Struggling to find this purpose lies in learning to navigate our circumstances, more so than in personal deficit or failure. Sarah views the therapeutic process of relationship building and understanding the impact of our environment as vital to growth. She wishes to work collaboratively with clients to not only achieve their goals and move forward, but help educate them on understanding their diagnoses and surrounding influences on these diagnoses. She works to empower clients to recognize that our unique differences or those things commonly referred to as “shortcomings” or “disabilities” are simply our humanities. When people are young, we are asked what we want to be when we grow up and often scoffed at when our answer is at the top of the career ladder. Sarah believes you can reach the top of your ladder– whatever type it may be (career based, emotional, mental health), no matter who you are, or where you have been, if that is where you are meant to be. We all have the ability and all deserve to reach our highest potential.

Sarah believes in learning how each aspect of ones life can be an influence on achieving their goals. She not only wants to see her client’s succeed, but be their biggest supporter while doing so.

When asked what Sarah believes she is awesome at, Sarah replied, “I’m great at connecting with my clients on a personal level, letting them know that I am on the same page as them in several regards. We will only target what client’s are ready to target and will only advance when client’s are ready to advance. Each approach I take with a client is individualized. I will go to any extent to find a solution for my client. We will not only find a strength, but build on that strength until you glow with positive self-esteem. You will know that you matter and that your goal is now my goal..”
