About Sara Simpson
A little bit about me
My own health crisis was a catalyst for change. I had the opportunity to reflect on my own life and make a career shift in which I could both continue to provide direct patient care, and flourish and grow despite my physical limitations. After over twenty years in healthcare with multiple degrees and national board certifications in medical and psychiatric nursing, holistic healthcare, and indigenous healing practices, I received my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (MA). I am a Nationally Board Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC).
I have specialized post-graduate training in: dialectical behavior therapy, somatic modalities, body mind and mindfulness based modalities, ecopsychology, burnout/ vicarious trauma/compassion fatigue, domestic abuse and violence, personality disorders, and grief and loss. Through counseling, I weave together my diverse skills and years of experience in patient care to provide trauma-informed, safe, client-centered, and compassionate counseling services.
