Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Experiencing domestic abuse—whether emotional, psychological, physical, financial, or coercive—can deeply impact your sense of safety, identity, and trust. I provide a trauma-informed, attachment-based space where your story is honored and your pace is respected.
Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently work with parts of you that may feel afraid, self-critical, numb, or conflicted. Through a developmental and Emotionally Focused lens, we explore how attachment wounds and relational patterns may have shaped the relationship dynamic—without blame or judgment. Our work focuses on rebuilding safety, strengthening self-trust, processing trauma, and restoring your sense of agency,

Berkeley is home to the University of California, Berkeley—one of the world's great public research universities—and has a progressive, intellectually vibrant character and a community culture that is among the most therapy-positive in the United States, with an unusually high density of licensed therapists relative to population. The university's health services include counseling for enrolled students, and the academic and activist culture of Berkeley creates specific mental health pressures around perfectionism, imposter syndrome, political engagement, and the burnout of sustained social activism. The city's housing market is among the most expensive in the country, and financial precarity is a significant stressor for students, artists, and workers who value Berkeley but struggle to afford it. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, activist burnout, identity and social justice, anxiety, depression, and the complex emotional experience of living in a place with deeply held ideals about equity alongside the daily reality of inequality.
