Sara Griffin, MDiv, MA, LPC

Sara seeks to provide a compassionate space for people to name their hurt, explore their healing, move towards change, and claim their own power and possibilities. “We are born into the world with everything we need to be whole, already within us, and all we may need, to heal ourselves,” she says.

Her specialty areas include sexual orientation and identity, gender and gender non-conforming identities, complex grief and loss, relationship distress, and survival of trauma.

“The power of healthy, supportive relationships creates lasting change in one’s life. And as we grow and maintain meaningful and authentic relationships, we also learn more about ourselves, how we hurt, how we communicate, how we love.”

Sara uses a varied counseling approach including person-centered, trauma-informed and feminist-relational models. “We may also work on exploring and integrating spirituality as a resource if you choose.”

She earned her Master’s in Pastoral Counseling at Loyola University, Chicago.
