Born and raised in a country town in the southeast United States, Sara’s community-centered upbringing informs her ideas around accessibility and belonging. She became a therapist about 9 years ago and has spent most of the journey doing her own healing work and exploring what it means to be mentally healthy and mentally ill. As a mental health futurist, she continuously reimagines what mental wellness can look like using the technology we have in this era- both digital and ancient. Sara is a Marriage and Family Therapist by training and currently works as a psychedelic research therapist and facilitator.
