Do you find yourself at a crossroads and in need of some support? While change can be scary, it can also offer new opportunities for growth and insight. Transitions can light up the unhealed parts of us, and make it difficult to discern our truth from the stories we’ve been told about who others think we are. My role in this is to help you discern what you want to take with you along the way and explore with you what’s standing in the way of you living your most authentic life.

My approach to therapy involves humor, honesty, mutual respect, and loving accountability. I am straightforward in the therapy room and passionate about holding compassionate space for you to feel free to explore whatever you may need. I am an advocate for sharing our stories and believe exploring and understanding our narratives can help us better understand why we feel the way we do.

I am proud to identify as queer and find joy in working with the LGBTQIA+ community. I am trained in working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have specialized training in EMDR, trauma-informed yoga, and nature-based therapy.

Whether your worries are something new, or an issue you’ve held close for awhile, I’d be honored to walk with you as you create a new path.

Sara sees New Mexico & Texas-based clients via telehealth and offers nature-based services to those with access to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Sara does have availability in her schedule for new intakes. She can be reached by phone at 214.617.5688 or by email at sesanchezcounseling@gmail.com.

Hey y’all! Stephanie here. it is my goal as a clinician to allow you to be seen and heard while creating a space for you to grow and achieve your goals. We will work together to identify areas of growth to allow you to find true joy in your life. 

A little about me — I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Oklahoma State University and my Master of Science in Couple, Marriage, and Family Therapy from Texas Tech University. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am both passionate and equipped to support individuals, couples, and families with various concerns. I love to work with adolescents and young adults to help them thrive at home, school, and in their relationships with others during this challenging life stage. I am also a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor Intern and enjoy supporting individuals and their families who are battling addictive behaviors. I have developed family therapy curriculum for residential treatment centers and feel eager about working with individuals and their families to maintain their recovery outside of the treatment environment. 

My hope is to help my clients feel connected and empowered by offering guidance, support, and empathy. I am both honored and grateful for the opportunity to walk alongside those seeking help in navigating their life’s journey.

Stephanie currently sees Texas-based clients via telehealth and has availability in her schedule for new intakes. She can be reached by phone at 214.732.7099 or by email at stephanie.l.knudsen@gmail.com.
