Welcome. I'm Sarah and I am so glad you're here.
At Pax Counseling and Wellness I am committed to helping individuals in the state of Virginia heal from complex relational trauma through virtual EMDR Therapy that honors your time and empowers lasting transformation. I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where healing begins, resilience grows, and a new chapter can unfold.
Chances are you found yourself here because something in life doesn't feel quite right, and you're ready for a change. Maybe you find yourself struggling with:
-
Repeating painful relational patterns despite your best efforts
-
Feeling overly responsible in relationships or emotionally shut down
-
Experiencing a deep sense of loneliness, disconnection, or mistrust
-
Struggling internally with self-worth in ways that don’t match your external success
These are often the hidden echoes of complex developmental and attachment trauma; early experiences that shaped how you learned to relate, love, and protect yourself. EMDR Therapy can help interrupt those default relational patterns and help to create new, healthier ways of moving and being in the world. You can choose from 90 minute - 6 hours (3 days) EMDR Therapy options, and I am happy to customize whatever treatment options work best for you.
​If you’re ready for focused, transformational healing in a safe, supportive space, I would be honored to guide you along the way.
