Sarah Canterbury

Mental Health Counselor

Registered-Intern

I am a registered- intern training to become a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I graduated with my Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Troy University in May 2024.

I have a heart that resonates with the challenges individuals, parents, and couples face, and a commitment to help those seeking emotional healing and healthier relationships. I have a passion for helping clients overcome challenges related to anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.

I work with children, teenagers, adults and couples. My approach to counseling is deeply informed by attachment theory, which underscores the significance of early relationships in shaping an individual's emotional development. Recognizing that secure attachments provide a foundation for healthy relationships, she adeptly guides her clients through processes of self-discovery, fostering resilience and emotional regulation. Through empathetic listening and skillful guidance, I assist clients in identifying and healing attachment wounds, enabling them to cultivate more secure connections with themselves and others.

I have a passion for empowering couples to navigate challenges in their relationships and deepen their emotional bonds. I facilitate open and honest dialogues that lead to emotional vulnerability and the creation of more secure and fulfilling partnerships.

I understand that taking the steps to begin counseling can be vulnerable and intimidating, and so I work to create a safe, inviting and comforting environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences at their own pace. Drawing from my theoretical knowledge and practical skills, I tailor interventions that address each client's unique needs, fostering healing and personal growth.

I am currently accepting clients in person or telehealth in Florida under the supervision of Joshua Hostetter, MA LMHC.
