Sarah O’Keefe, LPC - Wonder Within, LLC

Hello! I’m so glad you stopped by. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and safe with the therapist you choose. Here’s a little bit about me: I currently live in Colorado, but am originally from Kansas City, Missouri. I have a Master’s Degree in Counseling & Guidance from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. For several years, I have specialized in helping survivors of sexual abuse & assault heal from the trauma they experienced. A huge passion of mine is helping survivors of trauma, and creating a safe space for all the parts that so often come along with trauma: anxiety, body shame, people-pleasing, “I don’t know who I am”, mistrust, perfectionism, the list goes on. In my work, it’s important to me that you leave with tools and insight for your life outside sessions, too (where most of life happens!). My work is rooted in a systems, feminist, and Health At Every Size (HAES) holistic approach. I provide information on trauma’s impact, and I can help make sense of your experience by looking at the oppressive systems that have had an impact on how you navigate the world (i.e. patriarchy, individualism, diet culture, racism, sexism, etc.). I incorporate evidenced based treatments, such as IFS, EMDR, and including what’s happening in the body to facilitate healing in a way that fits for you and the parts you show up with. I love incorporating humor in sessions also (when appropriate of course!) as one of the many experiences of nervous system regulation. Outside of work, I feel most like ME when I’m outside - hiking, camping, long walks with a podcast, laying on a blanket at a park with a great book. My website: https://www.wonderwithincounseling.com/
