Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S
You may be functioning on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you cannot seem to change. I provide a warm, trauma-informed space where children, adolescents, and adults can better understand themselves, process difficult experiences, and build meaningful, lasting change. My approach is compassionate and individualized, integrating EMDR, CBT, DBT, Person-Centered Therapy, and parts-based work based on your needs and goals.

Sara Pavel
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’re used to handling things on your own. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s going on without feeling like you have to have everything figured out first. I believe therapy should be practical, collaborative, and connected to your real life—not just a place to talk about problems.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your own thoughts, struggling with confidence, or navigating a major transition, we’ll work together to understand what’s getting in the way and find ways forward. I’ll meet you where you are while also challenging you when it can help you grow. You don’t have to wait until things feel unbearable to reach out. If something in your life isn’t working the way you want it to, therapy can be a place to start making a change.
