Welcome to Your Healing

The transformative therapy you’ve been seeking.

Therapist

Sara Joern

(she/her)

Greetings! If you’ve found your way here, it’s because a part of you is ready for change, even if another part is uncertain or afraid. This moment—of both longing and hesitation—is exactly where your healing journey begins.

Many therapies focus solely on symptom management, which fails to identify what’s at the core of an issue. It’s like weeding a garden and only pulling out the leafy parts. Your garden might look nice temporarily, but that pesky weed is going to grow back. I will support you in digging out the roots in order to create lasting change on a deep and profound level.

Change is Possible

Negative experiences in your past may affect you, but they do not define you. You are so much more than what you’ve been through. Healing might feel like something that’s unattainable, but I’m here to tell you that not only is it possible, but that you deeply deserve it.

My approach is grounded in transpersonal depth psychology with a social justice lens. I utilize an eclectic blend of evidence-based practices and non-traditional therapy modalities, which include cognitive strategies, trauma-focused treatment, mindfulness, parts work, EMDR, nature-based modalities, and somatic interventions. As a compassionate and experienced therapist, I will help you navigate every step of the therapeutic process with care and expertise.

Testimonials

“Welcome to the best! Sara is simply amazing. She’s brought me through intense trauma with EMDR & kept me on track with her gifted, heart-felt wisdom. Her kindness and genuine care have equipped me with strength, patience, & the insight to carry me through this journey. Sara’s a joy and, in my case, a new life-giver.”

“Sara’s inclusive approach welcomes people from all walks of life, creating a safe space to feel heard and understood. Through EMDR & her unique blend of kindness, straightforward talking, and deep spiritual understanding, I've processed trauma and gained deeper insights into myself. Sara's ability to explain the scientific aspects of how trauma affects the mind, body & soul has helped me understand my experiences without fear. I cannot recommend her enough.”

“Sara has helped me reroute the neural pathways of anxiety I thought were so much a part of me that true relief was not possible. And yet, I find myself waking without the sense of dread that has accompanied me for so long. I am able to see the possibility in uncertainty, & when I do struggle, I know Sara will meet me with compassion. She will listen, but also, she will challenge me in her gentle, insightful – but never prescriptive – way, until I can find my way back to the moment, always better equipped to navigate whatever lies ahead.”

“Sara brings huge compassion to my life, as she holds space for what feel like the scariest of emotions. I’m grateful for her help through difficult periods of work, family, & relationship stress when I was unsure and fearful of what the future might hold. She remembers small details of what I share & makes me feel like I matter. She brings calm energy & thoughtful reframes, reinforcing these ideas so well that sometimes I hear her voice in my head now as I confront challenging situations.”

“Sara is the most gifted therapist I have ever worked with. Her sensitivity & ability to encourage & support has been so helpful. Sara is an expert EMDR trained therapist, which has enabled me to process multiple traumatic experiences from my past. It has been so effective that my depression has lifted permanently & I have been able to move forward in areas of my life that I had thought untouchable before EMDR. Relief is truly what one will receive from this treatment.”

"How can I put into words all that Sara has helped me with over the last five years? Through talk therapy and EMDR, she has been one of the main supportive pillars in the transformation of my mental health and self-worth. Sara will dive into thought and behavior patterns deeper than any therapist I have experienced. She always respectfully challenges my negative self-talk and asks me to examine my "whys" about things, helping me to live more intentionally. I highly recommend working with Sara if you are looking for a dedicated, compassionate, and deeply knowledgeable therapist."
