Sara Denman
Psychologist, Psy.D
My goal is to provide positive therapy for change, helping people move from merely surviving to thriving. I have worked in private practice since 1999 and during that time I have developed methods that have proven helpful for a number of challenges people seek treatment for. In addition, I have spent many hours getting extra training and skills to enhance my ability to help people who may be struggling.

Diane Hough, LMFT — Integrative Therapy for Relationships & Life Transitions
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I've been a therapist for over 30 years and bring warmth, curiosity, intuition, and an open mind to my work. I can also be direct when I think it will be helpful. I especially enjoy working with thoughtful, self-aware people who are looking for real change—not just insight into what's happening, but new ways of experiencing themselves, their relationships, and their lives. I see therapy as a collaborative process, and I bring both my experience and genuine curiosity to each person I work with.
If you're wondering whether we might be a good fit, I invite you to contact me for a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation. It's a chance to tell me a little about what you're looking for, ask questions, and get a sense of whether working together feels right.

The Art of Rest
Life Coach, M.S. Psychology
We Are Drawn To Our Natural Rhythms
As someone who has had their own continuous journey with sleep, restfulness and dreams—I’m not leading you anywhere into the depths of the night that I haven’t been.
I come with a satchel full of useful tools and a humble curiosity about what it means to rest well, and try again.
I work best with clients who are looking to cultivate a better understanding with themselves with curiosity, compassion, and creativity. In our work together my biggest intention to assist you in building your own, personalized roadmap to rest.
Through my scientific, theraputic, and land-based training, I also know that sleep, stress, rest, and dreams change seasonally. I do my best to tailor our work together to fit the changing seasons in our lives—both internal and external.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Where within you does conflict persist?
Is it in the body, a swirling energy the surges without explanation, keeping you spinning in thought circles and struggling to sleep or relax (ANXIETY)?
Is it in the heart, the whistling emptiness of grief, or the stabbing pain of ruptured relationships, and lost connections (DEPRESSION)?
Is it in the head, thoughts that won’t stop reciting their well worn verses of what-ifs and should-haves (OCD/ADHD)?
Is it in the spirit, an anguish of being, the unknown outnumbering the known to a paralyzing degree, questions of WHY swirling intangible as mist, existential questions, the ground beneath our feet uneven and unsteady (BELIEF/MEANING)?
Is it in all of the above, and in your dreams as well, impacting ability to connect with others, to be still with yourself, to be intimate, to give and receive love, to accept what was, embrace what will be, and surrender to the now (TRAUMA)?
