I know what it takes to support and guide one through transformational change in the therapy process. I am here to help you find hope, relief, and a reduction in symtoms.

Sarah Malavenda
Registered Social Worker, LSW
As a therapist, my goal is to work together to find the healing process that works best for you. Since we all have unique needs and experiences, I like to meet clients where they are, whatever that looks like.
My style is compassionate, calm, and curious. In session, I offer an interactive approach based on trust and respect so you don’t feel alone when things get messy. I also bring my genuine & authentic self to sessions, which means that I am there for you when things are heavy or when you need a bit of humor to brighten your day.
I specialize in life transitions, burnout, anxiety, depression, trauma, sex therapy, couples therapy, and more. I use a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and a variety of therapeutic techniques to cater to each client’s unique needs.
If you’d like to learn more about myself or therapy generally, I’m happy to hop on a quick call to share more information!

As a Certified Alcohol Drug Counselor and Trauma-informed Clinician, I, Rick, am committed to providing an authentic and empathetic approach to my clients. With my licensure in Indiana and Illinois, I offer virtual sessions to clients across the globe, ensuring accessibility and convenience.
My journey as a yoga instructor and veteran has given me a deep understanding of trauma and addiction management, enabling me to connect with clients on a profound level. I am trained in ACT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, TF-CBT, and Mindfulness, allowing me to tailor my therapeutic approach to each individual's unique needs.
Having completed Dr. Karyl McBride's WIEBGE therapist training, I specialize in helping adult children of narcissistic parents. My presence on the WIEBGE therapist registry is a testament to my dedication to this specific area of expertise.
