DR. SARAH GONZALEZ

My clinical expertise lies in supporting individuals as they navigate major​ life transitions—such as career changes, relationship shifts, loss, and identity development—helping them build insight, emotional flexibility, and coping strategies to thrive in new life stages.

I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine, human connection. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity — I want to understand your unique story and help you make sense of what’s getting in the way of living the life you want. 

​

I bring a blend of insight, humor, and compassion to my work. Therapy with me often includes laughter alongside reflection, because I believe growth doesn’t have to be heavy all the time. I aim to create a nonjudgmental space where you can explore openly, feel seen, and begin to make meaningful changes at your own pace.

​

My therapy style integrates evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Interpersonal Therapy, tailoring interventions to meet each client’s unique needs and goals.

​

In addition to my clinical work, I am an experienced supervisor and educator, mentoring early-career clinicians and consulting on leadership and organizational development. I am  passionate about cultivating psychologically safe environments that support growth, compassion, and effective communication.

​

On a personal note, I was born and raised in Chicago but landed in Indiana in adulthood. I am a married mother of two children and one pup who thinks he is a child. In my free time, I enjoy reading, music of all types, working out, and cooking.
