You want intimacy without losing yourself.
You want to tolerate conflict without shutting down.

Holistic Trauma-Informed Therapy Services
This isn’t surface level healing. This is deep, root-level healing that supports you in setting yourself free and coming alive again.
Many of the patterns you find yourself stuck in today (self-doubt, people-pleasing, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, shutdown) began as intelligent, protective adaptations to environments that didn’t always feel safe.
By working with the mind, body, and spirit together, we process and free these stored trauma responses, build internal safety, and restore self-trust.
Mind: Parts Work
Gently explore the protective parts of you that formed in response to stress and relational trauma. As we process trauma and repair relational wounds, your nervous system settles, allowing clarity and self-trust to naturally arise from a place of safety. You will learn how to be the parent to your inner child they have been waiting for.
Body: Somatic Therapy
Learn to feel your emotions without becoming overwhelmed. We work directly with the nervous system to process stored trauma responses, build emotional capacity, and cultivate a grounded sense of safety in your body, so you can finally live with presence and feel at home in yourself.
Spirit: Psychospiritual Therapy
Psychospiritual Therapy supports you in reconnecting with your inner wisdom while cultivating a grounded, authentic spiritual connection. Rather than bypassing pain, we integrate spirituality with trauma-informed care to help you restore self-trust, self-empowerment, meaning, and purpose.
Spiritual connection becomes a resource for hope and resilience, not escape.
I’m here to help you transition out of survival mode and into presence and self-trust – allowing the life you sense is possible to unfold with ease.
Sarah Sharpe, LCSW - Practicing for 8+ years
Welcome! I’m Sarah, and I blend evidence-based trauma therapy with grounded spirituality.
I know how painful it is to live in constant anxiety and self-doubt – and I also know that healing is possible when safety and depth meet.
Through years of trauma-informed therapy, nervous system healing, and spiritual integration, I learned how to move out of survival mode and into the magic of the present moment. I now live a life that truly feels like a miracle, and it is my honor to support others in finding this same freedom.
As a licensed psychotherapist, a certified psychedelic therapist, and someone deeply committed to my own inner work, my approach is shaped by clinical training, lived experience, and a connection to something greater than myself.
FAQs

Holistic therapy is a whole-person approach to healing that supports your mind, body, and spirit. It goes deeper than traditional talk therapy by addressing the root of your challenges, so you can actually let them go rather than simply manage symptoms. My approach weaves together somatic therapy, IFS, and grounded spiritual connection to support you in releasing old patterns, healing your nervous system, reconnecting with your intuition, and creating meaningful, sustainable change.
Many people who feel stuck in traditional therapy experience major transformation through this approach.

I currently work with clients who are California residents and offer ongoing sessions virtually. For clients in Sonoma County, the Bay Area, or Los Angeles, I occasionally offer in-person sessions, though these are limited and not available for ongoing weekly appointments.
-
50-minute sessions: $200-$300
90-minute sessions: $300-$450
You choose where to pay on the scale depending on what feels sustainable for you. Paying on the higher end allows me to provide lower cost sessions to those who cannot afford my typical rates.
I offer a limited number of sliding-scale/ lower priced spots based on need and availability, which we can discuss during our consult call.

I’m not accepting new insurance clients at this time, but I’m happy to provide super bills, which you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. If you’re unsure about your coverage, you can call the number on your insurance card and ask whether your plan offers out-of-network mental health benefits and what percentage they reimburse.

Absolutely. I used to be extremely skeptical myself, which helps me support clients who want a grounded path into deeper self-understanding. You never have to believe in anything that doesn’t feel true to you. We focus on your inner experience, your intuition, and what your unique truth is, not external spiritual concepts. Many clients find that a sense of connection naturally emerges when the body feels safe and the mind softens, but there’s no pressure or agenda.
Also, to me, spiritual connection simply means feeling more deeply connected – to yourself, to your intuition, to your values, and to something bigger than yourself that brings meaning to your life. That may be nature, creativity, the body, ancestors, energy, or something you can’t name yet.
-
Yes. Using a trauma-informed approach, I offer preparation sessions to help you enter a retreat or ceremony feeling grounded, clear, and emotionally supported. We’ll explore your intentions, work through any fears or uncertainties, and help your nervous system feel safe enough to surrender into the experience. This allows you to get the most healing and insight from your journey.
I also offer integration sessions afterward to help you make sense of what you experienced and translate your insights into meaningful, lasting change in your daily life.

Many of my clients come to me after feeling like therapy “didn’t work” in the past—and I deeply understand that experience, because I felt the same way for many years. It doesn’t mean anything is wrong with you; it usually just means the approach wasn’t the right fit. Traditional talk therapy can only go so far when the deeper layers of the body, nervous system, and subconscious patterns aren’t being addressed.
There’s only so much healing that can happen through the mind alone. When we bring the body into the process, we access deeper layers of trauma—including patterns and experiences we may not consciously remember—that are stored in the nervous system. When the body feels safe and all parts of you are included in the work, real change becomes possible. Many people who felt stuck in previous therapy experience major transformation through this approach.
