My name is Sara and I am a psychotherapist practicing in San Francisco. I began to understand and explore the role of sex and gender in our society as part of the first class of graduates with a Gender Studies degree from my university. The advocacy at the time was based on the fact that studying this topic was not important or academic. Now, twenty years later, I am hopeful that times are changing. Now in my practice being inclusive is vital and I honor my patient’s for their background and identity. I am not an expert on everyone, as we are all individuals, but I respect and invite you to my practice. All are welcome here.

My specialization is working with adults facing a history of trauma. This includes sexual and gender based violence, but I also work with adults facing a generalized anxiety, depression, or simply feeling “stuck” in their lives. I am a guide, a motivation, and the supportive and compassionate advocate for you making a change. If you are ready to improve your mental health, improve quality of life, and ensure deep personal connections with others…. You have found your new therapist!

I also provide therapy for those going through transition, seeking clarity within their gender identity or sexuality, and I work with all relationship dynamics. You matter and so does your relationship(s). If am a kink+ sex worker+ poly+ open relationship+ body+ LGBTIQ+ and I am experienced in supporting sex and connection in any connection that is important to your life and happiness.
