Sarah Schieffelin
From Sarah’s point of view, therapy is about creating meaning in life, increasing authenticity, and letting go of shame. She’ll warmly support you throughout the process. When you're ready, you will begin by developing a therapeutic relationship where every aspect of you feels welcomed, even the parts that feel overwhelming or not good enough. You'll connect with her, a real person, not a blank slate. This might look like shared laughter, ongoing discussions about what feels best for you, and finding small ways to alleviate societal pressures.
Sarah would love to see the world through your ever-evolving perspective. She cares enough to let you grow at your own pace and challenge you when you’re up for it. She often uses Person-Centered Theory, EMDR, parts work, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Sarah believes that you deserve individualized support with flexibility.
Authenticity and compassion are two of Sarah’s values as a therapist. This includes practicing cultural humility and being disability-accommodating. Sarah knows that it’s important for her to continually reflect and grow to support you as you reflect and grow.
