Virtual EMDR and Trauma Therapy in North Carolina
A space to feel, heal, and be heard
Trauma-informed therapy to help you feel more grounded, connected, and fully yourself
Do you find it hard to love or accept certain parts of yourself? Maybe you want to step outside your comfort zone, but the fear of rejection or not being “enough” holds you back. Or perhaps you feel stuck in relationship patterns that leave you confused or unfulfilled.
How we relate to ourselves and others is often shaped by our environment and earlier life experiences, especially when our basic needs for love, connection, or safety weren’t fully met. I'm Sarah, a virtual therapist for adults across North Carolina, and I help people navigate the effects of trauma, anxiety, low self-worth, grief, and relationship challenges so they can feel more connected, grounded, and less defined by their past.
How I can help
EMDR Therapy
EMDR helps your brain process distressing memories so they feel less intense. I'm trained in Somatic and Attachment-Focused (SAFE) EMDR, which brings the body and the relationship into the process.
Grief and Loss
I work with grief in many forms. Grief can be clear, like the loss of a loved one, or quiet, like the end of a relationship, the loss of a version of yourself, or the life you expected to have.
Self-Worth
For the inner critic and the voice that says "I'm not enough," we work on how you see and relate to yourself, beneath the surface.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma doesn't always come from a single event. It can also come from repeated experiences of stress, instability, or emotional disconnection. I specialize in developmental and relational trauma.
Anxiety
For overthinking, social anxiety, and anxiety in relationships, we look at where the anxiety comes from and what it's protecting you from.
Relationships
For people-pleasing, boundaries, fear of rejection, and patterns that keep repeating, we explore how you came to understand relationships in the first place.
We might be a good fit if…
You want to go beneath the surface and understand your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors
You have an inner critic that tells you "I'm not good, smart, or funny enough," "I'll always be alone," or "I'm only likable if I'm perfect"
You're grieving a death, the end of a relationship, or a major life change
You keep replaying situations and second-guessing yourself
You struggle with boundaries, speaking up, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or fear of rejection
You swing between emotional overwhelm and emotional numbness
You grew up with emotional neglect or emotionally unavailable caregivers
You understand your experiences intellectually but still feel affected by them emotionally
You want a therapist who practices EMDR, not only talking about your experiences
You want online therapy in North Carolina, and you're 18 or older
