About

Hello, I'm Sarah Bass, LPC

I am passionate about helping others create meaningful and fulfilling lives. Since childhood, I have been drawn to the helping professions, inspired by the sense of service and community I witnessed growing up in the Marshall Islands. Those early experiences fostered a lifelong commitment to making a positive impact, leading me to pursue roles in the medical field and public health.

Through years of experience in customer service, sales and various healthcare setting, I became increasingly aware of the critical need for accessible and compassionate mental health care—a realization that guided my decision to focus my career on this vital and ever-evolving field.

I am often described as warm-hearted, organized, and driven. Clients have shared that I have a unique ability to challenge them in meaningful ways, encouraging self-reflection and growth as they work toward becoming their most authentic selves.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family, friends, and our dog. Whether hiking, camping, reading, traveling, or experimenting with new recipes, I value the simple joys that bring balance and inspiration to everyday life.

My Philosophy

Cultivating a fulfilling and balanced life is a lifelong journey—one that often comes with challenges across our emotional, intellectual, physical, spiritual, and social well-being. In today’s fast-paced, high-pressure world, many people find themselves feeling overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or disconnected from what truly matters. You might be succeeding on paper yet still struggling to feel grounded, fulfilled, or at peace within yourself and your relationships.

As a therapist, I help clients navigate these challenges with compassion, clarity, and direction. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and rooted in your personal values. Together, we identify the patterns that keep you feeling stuck—such as chronic stress, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or outdated coping mechanisms—and work toward practical, sustainable change.

Drawing from approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and acceptance-based frameworks, I tailor our sessions to your unique needs and goals. My focus is to help you strengthen emotional awareness, reduce anxiety, improve relationships, and cultivate a deeper sense of purpose and self-trust.

Therapy with me is both reflective and action-oriented. You’ll gain tools to manage daily stress and move toward living more intentionally—in alignment with your values, priorities, and authentic self.
