Sarah is a recent graduate from Virginia Commonwealth University with a Master of Social Work degree. She comes to Seasons Counseling as a former educator. Sarah taught for five years in public education with students spanning from middle schoolers to freshman in college. As an educator, Sarah felt the most rewarding experiences were when she could help students navigate social/emotional obstacles both in and out of the classroom. That curiosity and compassion lead her to the field of social work and counseling.
Rooted in a person-centered attachment theory approach, Sarah strives to create a space where every client feels heard, seen, safe, and supported. She believes that through the therapeutic process you can learn to better understand your experiences in order to increase your window of tolerance and begin the journey of reconnecting with yourself and others.

Sarah remains in awe of the courage and vulnerability it takes to dive into self-exploration and examination through therapy.
In her free time, Sarah enjoys being outside, hiking, journaling, drinking coffee, and reading. She enjoys traveling with her partner to see family and exploring new and unfamiliar places.

Nick is also interested in how the body responds in the moment during therapy, believing that physical reactions can offer valuable insights when words fail to convey meaning. He understands that clients don’t need to have everything figured out to begin therapy. He feels honored to walk alongside each person as they heal, grow, and get curious about what’s next.
Outside of the counseling space, Nick has a wide range of interests, including reading at coffee shops, playing video games, skateboarding, photography, and traveling. He also loves a good TV show or Movie and spending time with family and friends.
