The Self-Care Summit

About Maddie: Maddie’s three greatest passions in the work that she does are grief, anxiety, and identity. While walking through her own grief journey, she discovered a unique gift to partner with others in their questioning, processing, and planning for life after loss. Similarly, her own walk with anxiety and depression has equipped me to walk step by step with others in their unique experience in those areas. She primarily works with adult women and couples, and is passionate about uncovering the developmental and relational woundings that may be impacting their lives and keeping them “stuck”. Throughout the lifespan, identity is an ever-changing yet deep-rooted process as we grow and develop. Maddie thrives in partnering with her clients in discovering what makes them come alive and unveiling their unique identity. About Sara: Sara’s approach to therapy tends to draw from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, attachment, and trauma-informed therapies. She has specialized training in a developmental and relational trauma model (HOCI - Healing Our Core Issues). During the counseling process, she seeks to help clients find and heal parts of themselves that have gotten wounded and left behind. We do this by engaging the whole person - body, mind, heart, and spirit. Among other approaches, Sara often utilizes reparenting and experiential techniques, somatic exercises, and mindfulness practices to help clients form a secure sense of self and heal from trauma. When the weather is pleasant, she also offers walk and talk nature therapy, and intends to begin offering therapeutic gardening as well. Sara has always been enthralled by the beauty of nature, especially when hiking, scuba diving, gardening, skiing, and being around animals, so she really enjoys getting to offer these experiential therapy opportunities. Sara loves this work. She loves getting to support and celebrate clients as they explore and uncover next steps in their walk towards goals and healing. Ultimately, she believes this process helps clients uncover the person they were always created to be; a unique and treasured presence. Sara strives to provide a warm, safe, therapeutic space for clients to explore their current emotions and beliefs and she’d love to journey with you when you’re ready!
