Sarah Chavez

My communication style

I aim to make our work together feel more like a conversation. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself. I want you to know it's okay to ask me questions, disagree with me, or even terminate our work together if it isn't a good fit. My goal is for you to find the type of therapeutic relationship that will be conducive to your growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

My therapeutic approach is rooted in my journey through challenges like anxiety/perfectionism, managing chronic pain, and challenges in relationships. These experiences have fueled my passion for helping others navigate similar difficulties, as I understand firsthand the impact of having someone support you in overcoming these limitations.

My goals for you

We will discuss the goals you have in mind during our first session. If you have no idea what your goal is, I can suggest a starting goal. I try to stick with one or two goals with clients. Most issues can be condensed, and this helps to keep the process more simplified.

Our first session

In the first session, expect a full history of your upbringing, symptoms, current functioning, and goals. We might discuss aspects that seem irrelevant, but it's best to establish a baseline. This is also an opportunity to see how I work, ask questions, and decide if I'm a good fit for your needs.
