Sara Kouten LCSW
Introduction
I specialize in grief and trauma support for cancer, chronic illness, and major life changes. I was called to serve others as a therapist after enduring my own trauma after my breast cancer diagnosis. Later the calling became louder when my son was diagnosed with cancer. From my personal experiences as a patient, survivor, and caregiver, I discovered that the psychosocial aspect of a major diagnosis was not adequately addressed during or after treatment by the medical community. I volunteered with many support organizations, and received a certificate in patient navigation, but found the best way to answer the calling was to return to college and change careers. Most of my undergraduate and graduate independent study was focused on the psychosocial effects of a cancer diagnosis, and the benefits of therapeutic intervention. Subsequently I have become an expert in trauma, anxiety, grief, depression, and chronic illness. I utilize a personalized approach utilizing many therapeutic modalities to tailor therapy and meet you where you are. I recognize that no one is the same and your therapy session should be an experience uniquely designed for you.
