Welcome to my Headway profile! I'm Sarah G., holding a Master’s in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling. In 2017, I went back to school to expand my skills, earning licenses in mental health and becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-I). Additionally, I hold an Advanced Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist (ACCTS) certification and have completed specialized trauma training. With over 13 years of diverse experience in mental health roles, I am committed to continuously improving my therapy skills to better support you.

Welcome. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience supporting individuals through life’s most complex transitions. I earned my Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Edinboro University, building on a foundation rooted in Criminal Justice from my undergraduate studies.

My work with the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation and the Department of Corrections has shaped a deep understanding of the intersection between personal growth and systemic challenges. I specialize in women’s issues and relationship dynamics, creating a safe, empowering space where clients can reconnect with their strengths, rebuild connections, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

I specialize in working with individuals in the counseling and mental health professions, including clinical counseling students, doctoral learners, professional supervisors, consultants, and educators.

I am a licensed professional counselor in multiple states, with experience working with both juvenile and adult mental health populations. I specialize in supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, dual diagnosis concerns, and challenges related to the criminal justice system.

Most recently, I worked as a therapist in a rural community mental health program, providing counseling to individuals with diverse needs. Before that, I served as the Clinical Supervisor of an addiction medicine program, where I led a team of clinicians and certified peer and recovery specialists while supporting an onsite clinic that provided medications for substance use disorders. Alongside these roles, I have also operated my own independent private counseling practice since 2016, offering personalized support to clients in my hometown and across the states where I am licensed.

Beyond my work as a therapist, I have enjoyed engaging with the community through training, outreach, and education. I have provided presentations and workshops to various organizations on topics such as substance use disorder, integrating peer services into community programs, mental health awareness, and reducing stigma.

I earned my Master’s degree in Community Counseling from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania and my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Forensic Psychology from Mercyhurst College. I am licensed in both Minnesota and Pennsylvania and am credentialed with the National Board for Certified Counselors. Additionally, I have completed specialized training in the treatment of anxiety disorders.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband and our family. We enjoy traveling—especially when it means discovering hidden gems off the beaten path. I also like cooking, attending local festivals, tackling home improvement projects, and cheering on my kids in their extracurricular activities.

Life brings stress, change, grief, and unexpected challenges. Even when things seem manageable on the surface, those experiences can quietly affect how we think, feel, relate to others, and move through the world. Therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and develop healthier ways to cope and grow.

I work with adults navigating everyday stress, major life transitions, grief, pet loss, self-doubt, career pressures, relationship concerns, and questions around identity. My approach is thoughtful, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel more grounded, confident, and connected.

I am a trauma expert with a double Master's in Social Work and Public Health, certified in Trauma, trained in EMDR, Mindfulness, Hypnotherapy and Rational Behavioral Therapy

With close to 20 years of experience working for the Philadelphia Courts system and a background in communications prior to obtaining my master's degree, I excel at finding communicable common ground with clients between family members. My personal and professional philosophy is "Life is simple, people complicate it". Let's make things simple again.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has worked with a diversity of clients. I am here to listen, validate, challenge, support and work with you on your therapeutic goals.
