ABOUT HER

Hi! I'm a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW), Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), and registered yoga teacher (RYT) who helps people understand what their bodies are carrying and how to work with it. Through my private practice, Embodied Mental Health, I support adults navigating trauma, anxiety, and physical responses to emotional experiences.

Through Embodied Education & Practice, I offer trainings, CEUs, and workshops on the nervous system, along with The Full Cup Collective, a 12-week program for moms of young kids. I also write The Weekly Exhale, a weekly newsletter that provides brief, simple practices for deep care in small moments.

Two ways to work with her

Embodied Mental Health

Embodied Mental Health is my individual therapy practice for adults working through trauma or anxiety, or noticing their body reacting to emotional experiences in ways that are hard to explain. As a licensed therapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), I combine talk therapy with body-based approaches so we can work with what you’re thinking and what your nervous system is holding. I see clients in person in Arlington and virtually across Massachusetts, DC, and Maryland.

The Founder's Note

"When you meet Sarah, you immediately understand why she does this work. She has such a gentle, calming presence, but she’s also incredibly human, relatable, and real — and as a mom herself, she truly gets the realities of this season of life. Even in a short conversation, I felt instantly more grounded just being around her. She makes nervous system work feel approachable and practical, not intimidating or overly clinical, and I love how deeply she understands what overwhelmed moms actually need."

You'll love working with her if…

  • -

    - You're tired of wellness advice that assumes you have a free hour, a quiet house, and a full night's sleep.

  • -

    - You want to understand _why_ your body reacts the way it does, not just be told to breathe through it.

  • -

    - You're done white-knuckling your way through the day and snapping at people you love, then feeling awful about it.

  • -

    - You want real tools you can use in the actual moment: the tantrum, the 5pm chaos, the third wake-up of the night.

  • -

    - You suspect your exhaustion isn't a character flaw or a willpower problem, and you're right.

now for the good stuff...
