Sara Thomson
(She/Her/Hers)
Counselor, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT)
I welcome clients from all walks of life and backgrounds to address concerns like depression, relationships, life transitions, anxiety, & racial identity.
I have a passion for helping individuals and relationships thrive. I'm strive to support all my clients in their effort towards more fulfilling, cohesive relationships, and ultimately towards peace. I also strive to address issues of anxiety and depression, as I know these often flare up during times of change and extra stress. I love working with couples/ families, utilizing trusted therapy models to tackle the conflicts that may be sucking the life out of your relationships. Often, I find myself helping clients navigate cultural differences that impact relationship dynamics as well as complex family relationships. Whether you're aiming to rekindle the spark in your relationship or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, your career, or your identity, I am honored to collaborate with any client willing to explore how they can grow.
