Sarah Pastor is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She earned her Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and has dedicated her career to helping adults navigate life’s most difficult seasons with compassion, honesty, and clarity. Sarah works with individuals who feel overwhelmed by grief, burnout, anxiety, trauma, and the quiet pain of never feeling fully seen. Many of her clients are exhausted from always being “the strong one,” struggling with low self-worth, emotional dysregulation, or patterns rooted in codependency and addiction. She has extensive experience supporting adults navigating dual diagnosis, early sobriety, dissociation, personality-related challenges, and major life transitions, helping clients feel safer, more grounded, and more connected to themselves. Therapy with Sarah is collaborative, steady, and deeply human. She believes healing happens in a space that feels genuine, supportive, and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on helping clients regulate emotions, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build healthier boundaries, and reconnect with their inner strength—at a pace that feels right for them. Sarah’s approach emphasizes empowerment, self-compassion, and meaningful, sustainable change. Sarah became a therapist because she knows what it feels like to be lost and unseen. She has “sat in the dark” herself, and now helps hold the lantern for others. Clients often describe her as warm, authentic, and easy to talk to, with a balance of compassion and gentle honesty. She believes life happens for you, not to you; and that with support, you can rewrite your story, breathe more freely, and begin again.
