Sarah Bovan, MA, LPC

 Life can be challenging and no matter our age or stage in life, we are faced with uncertainty and internal battles. It is often easy to hide those struggles whether it be because of anxiety, fear or shame. In isolation, the pain compounds and cripples. However, there is hope. As a counselor, I count it a privilege to be invited into the lives of people who have entrusted me to walk alongside them to a path of wholeness and healing. 

As a certified EMDR therapist, I have seen first hand the how powerful this approach is for treating trauma as well as anxiety, depression and many other symptoms clients come to me with. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidenced based, psychotherapy technique that helps people heal from trauma and other distressing experiences.

I am currently offering EMDR intensives to clients who would benefit from a full, immersive healing experience through either a half or full day of EMDR therapy. These intensives offer the opportunity to work through issues in a condensed period, making it possible to see significant progress in days rather than months.
