Sarah Pekoc

I wholeheartedly believe that everyone has the ability to heal from difficult life experiences and move forward to live a fulfilling and joyful life. I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and adults through the healing process after they have been exposed to traumatic life events such as abuse/neglect, adoption, divorce, loss, attachment difficulties, and other life stressors. I have a passion for working with new mothers experiencing peripartum/postpartum difficulties, parents of medically complex children, early childhood populations (0-5), and parent-child relationship issues. I work creatively and relationally to meet families where they are at based on their cultural background and needs. I work collaboratively to address concerns within the family unit and provide a safe space for exploration through talking, art, play, and mind-body connections. I am trained in several evidence-based trauma therapies. I have a warm and empathetic approach in which I empower families to develop a better understanding of relationships and behaviors while supporting them in learning new ways of coping, resulting in more satisfying relationships and a higher quality of life overall.
