Dr. Sara Tawil, PhD., LMHC, RPT

It is common for us to experience life’s challenges and to seek assistance navigating these transitions. My goal as a therapist is to understand your worldview, empower you, and support you. However, in working together, it is important that you appreciate that we are in a collaborative relationship and that you are the expert. The space that is created in the therapy room of mutual presence is one of acceptance and compassion, where you can express yourself openly, engage in self-discovery, and challenge difficult thoughts and emotions. I value our work together as being straightforward, empathetic, and meaningful. My specialties include the history of trauma and abuse, grief, purposelessness, individual, couple, and family relationships, and cultural issues. I use an eclectic approach that includes psychodynamic, family systems, and differentiation modalities to help you work through current and past relationship issues and identify patterns that are no longer serving you.
