Services
Sarah Burkle is a licensed psychotherapist who utilizes an approach focused on the mind-body connection and from a trauma-informed and systems lens, which takes into account a person’s whole lived experience and the system they live within. Therapy techniques are used to treat mental health and/or emotional challenges and find a path to freedom from distorted thinking, perspectives, and beliefs.
I offer cannabis and ketamine-assisted sessions on a select basis, and can offer resources for legal prescribers, options for obtaining medicine, and self-guided resources. Psychedelic preparation from a harm-reduction approach includes risks, safety, legalities, information about other plant medicines and entheogens, set and setting, and creating/clarifying intentions. Integration services after any non-ordinary state of consciousness experience is available and highly recommended, especially for those who undergo a medicine session. Education and integration services take place via video conferencing services.
Resources for embodiment, nourishment, ritual, and creativity to elevate well-being. These services differ from therapy in that they are not treatment for a mental health diagnosis, but rather in service of improving general well-being, performance, and growth. These services can be tailored to focus on enhancement in creativity, relationships, meaning and purpose, and general well-being.
Coaching services are not treatment for a mental health diagnosis, but rather are designed to support general well-being, performance, and personal growth. Using a forward-focused approach, coaching can be tailored to enhance career, creativity, relationships, meaning and purpose, health, and life satisfaction while helping individuals clarify goals, overcome obstacles, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
