Hi, I’m Sarah - the founder of Abloom Therapy & Wellness based in Ontario. I am a Registered Psychotherapist - RP - with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and I hold the professional designation of Canadian Certified Counsellor - CCC - with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).
I spent 23+ years navigating the corporate professional world, building a successful career for myself working as a support to sales executives in the media and advertising industry. This is where I grew up! In that time, I also married, became a mom, and divorced. On this life journey I discovered my most treasured core value - human connection - fueled by a desire to preserve and promote the well-being of others, and to nurture my own well-being in the same ways.
I have dedicated my life’s work to becoming a Registered Psychotherapist and to thrive in my core value. I work with those who are in the midst of significant life transitions but are feeling stuck because they are struggling with - anxiety, depression, abandonment pain, anger, panic, trauma, relationships, self-worth, self-esteem, perfectionism, self-harming, suicidal ideation, ADHD, divorce, parenting, family, & more.
My foundational approach to therapy is in Humanistic, Person-Centered, and Adlerian principles. Through a trauma-informed lens I apply a fluid method when selecting therapy modality types in treatment planning. In my work I gravitate mostly to Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I also invest time in psychoeducation because I believe that knowledge is power. I will dial in to your needs and reach for therapeutic tools that will help you become unstuck and thrive.
At Abloom Therapy & Wellness we are dedicated to helping individuals process their suffering with curiousity and to teach new skills that challenge barriers. I will climb down to meet you and sit with you in your well of suffering, with respect and without judgement, for as long as you need - but/and/then - I will invite you to climb out. My goal is to help you realize gains in therapy!
Therapy is hard work, and you’ve got to put in the work. But don’t worry, I got you!
