Bio:
My name is Sahara, and I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Arkansas State University. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Social Work at Walden University. I’ve spent most of my time working with children and adolescents, supporting needs related to autism spectrum disorder, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and DBT-informed skills, with a strong focus on behavioral interventions, trauma-informed care, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) principles, and a person-centered style. I really believe in meeting clients where they are and building a relationship first, because that’s what allows real progress to happen. I enjoy being able to support kids and families as they build skills, work through challenges, and start to see positive change. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, being outdoors, reading, gardening, and cooking.
