Hi, my name is Sarah Kourouma and for over a decade I have specialized in treating college students and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, and life transitions. I have worked in schools, clinics, and private practice in New York City and Austin. The college years are an exciting time, but also can be challenging with navigating all the changes and making big life decisions. Having a dedicated space to work through these new emotions is crucial to ensure you are making the right decisions aligned with what you want out of your life.

My clients typically seek out my help when they are struggling with one or more of the following symptoms: depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, social anxiety, relationship issues, life/goal uncertainties, unwanted compulsions and/or desires, negative and pessimistic thinking, procrastination, internet overuse, among others. My clients are often trauma survivors or adult children of parents who were emotionally and/or verbally abusive to them. My clients are often easily triggered by relationships, authority, responsibility, deadlines, confrontation, interpersonal conflict, decisions, major life transitions such as getting married, having a baby, breaking off a relationship, or starting and/or changing careers. My clients are typically helped by me in therapy through proven techniques that enable them to gain insight into themselves, to develop clarity into some of the reasons why they are feeling these ways, to learn more effective coping skills and strategies, and to experience authentic emotional healing and co-regulation through the warm, supportive, compassionate, validating, and empathetic intervention of a trusted "other." My clients experience healing and growth in treatment with me because of the trusting environment which is developed. They experience being truly seen and known which promotes more positive and optimistic feelings, and they are given the opportunity to see things more realistically, and can finally feel more at ease with themselves and with the world around them.

I believe that we all benefit from having someone in our corner to listen, motivate, challenge without judgment, and support through life’s unpredictable changes and challenges. Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or not embodying the life you want for yourself, know that whatever you’re going through, change IS possible, and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I value practicing what I preach and offer support in the ways that have been most helpful in my own life. Having a holistic therapeutic approach, we will consider different aspects of your life in the quest for health & wellness. This includes your emotional responses to challenges, personal relationships, creative or spiritual outlets, and daily habits and rituals. Rather than just suggest that you incorporate new practices into your life, I believe it's most effective to integrate tools into therapy. Together, we will learn and practice coping skills like breathing techniques, meditation, and changing negative thinking patterns, in order to support your confidence and familiarity in utilizing these tools on your own.
