I am very passionate and driven to help provide my clients with compassionate, empathetic, ethical, and culturally competent care that will help them achieve their objectives and goals. I believe therapy is not one size fits all, and that treatment should be tailored according to the unique needs of every client. I will meet you wherever you are at on your journey and help guide you every step of the way. My goal is to help provide you with a safe and caring environment to help foster a collaborative relationship and give you the best chance for success. I would be honored to walk with you on your journey. Please know that you are not alone, and you matter!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC in Colorado, LPCA in South Carolina) with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported, just as you are. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready to explore what’s next, we’ll work together in a way that centers your values, voice, and sense of agency. I draw from a variety of approaches based on what fits you best, and we’ll move at a pace that respects your needs- whether we’re focusing on the present, making space for the past, or imagining the future. I’m especially drawn to work that explores how early experiences shape who we are and how we relate to the world. Many of the people I work with are carrying the weight of developmental or complex trauma- wounds that can be hard to name but show up in powerful ways over time. Together, we’ll gently untangle those patterns and work toward greater clarity, connection, and healing. As an adoption-competent, adoptee-centric provider, I bring both lived and professional experience working with all members of the adoption constellation. I have a special interest in supporting individuals navigating adoption-related experiences, identity questions, anxiety, and the layered grief that can accompany growth.

Hello friends, if you are reading this, you may be feeling stuck, or shattered, or afraid that healing is not possible for you, and the pain you're experiencing is just how your life is now. But healing is possible. My name is Sara Williams and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate. I completed my Bachelor’s in Forensic Psychology at ASU and received my Master’s from Colorado Christian University. Having the opportunity to be a part of someone’s therapeutic journey is a huge privilege and providing an environment for you to feel safe, heard, and gain healing is a top priority. I use an array of evidenced based treatments and have experience working with a variety of ages, demographics, and presenting concerns. I specialize in EMDR and have a passion for working with individuals who have been impacted by trauma. I believe that people are created to be resilient, but unfortunately, time does not heal all wounds. Sometimes we need extra support and skills to overcome our past and reclaim the future. Taking the step to begin therapy can be daunting, but it would be a privilege for me to be a part of your healing journey!

I look forward to joining you in your journey toward wellness.

My dedication to helping others was shaped by formative life experiences and has deepened over time through both personal growth and professional development. A pivotal moment in this journey was my service as a medic in the military, which solidified my commitment to supporting others in times of crisis and vulnerability. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of roles within the behavioral health field, each one deepening my understanding of human resilience and further strengthening my commitment to the helping profession. Over the years, I’ve supported individuals across the lifespan as they worked through a wide range of challenges, including trauma, grief, mental health concerns, life transitions, involvement with the legal system, and other impactful stressors. My education and clinical experience have strengthened my therapeutic skills, broadened my perspective, and deepened my empathy—enhancing my ability to effectively support and empower others while fostering my own personal and professional growth. Through this growth, I developed a strong alignment with an Adlerian theoretical orientation, which emphasizes a holistic, goal-oriented approach rooted in social connectedness, personal development, and the belief that every individual has the capacity to realize their full potential. This orientation also integrates evidence-based practices that promote harm reduction and wellness strategies, all aimed at improving overall quality of life. As Alfred Adler observed, “Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words.” In therapy, this movement—toward connection, self-awareness, and healing—signals the start of true transformation. I firmly believe that embracing this principle helps individuals recognize their full potential and fosters meaningful change through active engagement, ultimately leading to greater well-being.
