Meet Your New Counselor
Sarah Velasquez, LPC Associate
Supervised by Elizabeth Landry, LPC Supervisor
You deserve peace. It can be hard to create space for yourself if you’ve spent your life being told to care for others first. Maybe you've been taught to ignore your own needs, leaving you disconnected from your inner voice. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—I’m here to help you create the space you need to heal and rediscover yourself. I’m passionate about helping people set boundaries in their work, families, and relationships, creating lives that feel authentic and fulfilling. I prioritize creating a safe, affirming space for our LGBTQIA community
My Approach
I'm a trauma therapist informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Attachment Theory, and I'm currently training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I'm LGBTQIA+ affirming and plan to pursue formal certification. I believe that building trust is the foundation of effective therapy, and I’m committed to creating a space where you feel safe exploring your past.
Individual Therapy
Experience personalized therapy sessions designed to address your unique needs and challenges, promoting emotional growth and well-being.
Trauma Therapy
I will be trained in Eye Movement Reprocessing & Desensitization (EMDR) by the end of 2025 and informed in Internal Family Systems (IFS). I believe healing from the past is possible and that everyone deserves a life that feels whole and fulfilling.
