Hello! My name is Sara and I am the newest APCC with BLK Haven.

Welcome to a place of comfort, vulnerability, and most of all, open arms.

I am here to help guide you to where you want to be no matter then means. Often mental health is overlooked and labeled as “just being in your head,” but with me, your thoughts, feelings, and experiences are validated and taken into great consideration. My goal for you is to feel a million times lighter after each session, as if the weight of your situation, whether good or bad, is lifted off of your shoulders. You matter, your well-being matters, and you deserve to have someone remind you that things do get better. I can be that someone for you.

I have a passion for educating others about the importance of effective communication, healthy boundaries, relationships, and stress management. Feeling misunderstood and unheard can lead to stress and unproductive behaviors which can damage relationships. We all have a desire to be heard and understood, I can provide tools and skills that can assist in getting those needs met appropriately.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (in the State of Georgia) and National Certified Counselor. I received my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University (Atlanta).

I also have an interest in understanding the impact of pregnancy and motherhood on women and their relationships. Change can bring about uncertainty and I can support you with a nonjudgmental approach as you face any new challenges that arise.
