About ME

My name is Sara Karlich and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Montana, and Clinical Mental Health Counselor in the state of Utah and have been in practice for 9 years. I received my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Denver Seminary in 2016. I have experience working with older teens (17 and older), couples, and adults of all ages. I currently specialize in the following issues: Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Trauma and Abuse, Stress Management, OCD, Marriage Issues, and Spiritual Issues.

On a personal level, I understand the journey you are about to take. Growing up in an abusive environment, I lived with perpetual feelings of sadness, fear, depression, and anxiety throughout my life. While most didn't know it, I covered the pain up with a smile, good grades, and hard work. I found myself oscillating between rebellion and pleasing others to feel better about myself. It wasn't until 2006, the year my parents divorced, that I realized I could not continue living in inner turmoil. 

What felt like the most painful time of my life ended up being one of the most fruitful blessings. I attended my first session with a licensed professional counselor and, little by little, God began to heal my heart. I am thankful for therapists, friends, and mentors who gave me time, space, and safety as I processed the hurt I had felt for so long. Throughout the years God brought many wise guides into my life to help bring me to a place of fuller healing. I realized I had to walk through the pain in order to be set free from it. I don't profess to be completely "healed" as I believe the healing journey won't be complete on this side of Heaven. However, I do believe that it is possible to live in greater freedom every single day.  

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my husband, stepdaughter, and our cat, Pumpkin. On weekends you can find us serving at our local church or outdoors enjoying God's creation.
