ABOUT ME
Sarah is a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who is deeply committed to helping individuals on their journey toward self-discovery, self-advocacy, and self-belief. She firmly believes that true growth and transformation occur when individuals are given the opportunity to express their authentic selves and shine in their own unique way.
Sarah's educational background includes a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from The University of Southern Mississippi. Eager to make a positive impact in her community, she quickly immersed herself in her work. She began by collaborating with youth and their families who had experienced complex trauma, recognizing the profound impact that trauma can have on individuals and their relationships. This early experience shaped her understanding of the importance of trauma-informed care and the need for healing and growth within families and communities.
Sarah has extensive experience working with individuals facing a range of challenges, including depression, ADHD, anxiety, major life transitions, PTSD, and multigenerational trauma. She understands that these challenges often stem from complex interactions between individuals and their broader social systems. Taking a family systems perspective, Sarah recognizes the interconnectedness of relationships and the influence of systemic factors on individuals' well-being.
Why I Do This Work
“I chose this work because I have seen how healing deepens when it is rooted in culture, language, and lived experience. My passion is in creating safe spaces for people whose stories and identities may not have always been honored.”
— Sarah Isaac
My Approach in Practice
In our sessions, I might invite you to pause and check in with your body, noticing any sensations or emotions present in the moment. From there, we could explore what comes up using Internal Family Systems, perhaps meeting and listening to different parts of yourself with curiosity and compassion. Some days, we might use art-making or narrative exercises to give voice to experiences that feel difficult to put into words. Other times, somatic grounding or breathing practices can help you feel safe and regulated before moving into deeper work. My goal is to co-create a space where you feel supported to explore at your own pace, with room for both vulnerability and growth.

Item description
How We Can Work Together
Clients often reach out when they are:
Facing significant life changes and want to build stability and supportive routines.
Exploring or reconnecting with their identity, including cultural roots, values, and self-understanding.
Feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns and wanting to uncover triggers and practice new ways of responding.
Living with the effects of trauma or dissociation and seeking skills for nervous system regulation and resilience.
Navigating eating disorders or disordered eating and wanting a more compassionate, sustainable relationship with food and their body.
No matter the reason, my focus is on creating a collaborative process that moves at your pace and honors your lived experience.
