Sarah L’Heureux Counseling
Struggling to talk about the tough shit?
Anxiety. Trauma. ADHD. The patterns you're exhausted by but can't seem to stop. The relationships that keep going sideways. The version of yourself you sense is in there, buried under years of just getting through it.
If you've been thinking about starting therapy, this is probably the nudge.
Whether you're navigating trauma, neurodivergence, or the particular exhaustion of a life that looks fine from the outside, there's a way through, and we'll find it together.
The work here moves in three directions: understanding where things come from, seeing how they're shaping your life right now, and building the kind of change that actually sticks. Managing symptoms is real and sometimes necessary, but the goal is getting to the root of them, so your nervous system isn't just coping differently, it's actually rewired.

EMDR
Most people who find their way to EMDR have already tried talking about it. They understand what happened. It still runs their life. That's because trauma isn't stored as a story, it's stored in the body, wired into the nervous system. EMDR works at that level, helping your brain finally finish processing what got stuck.

Art Therapy
Some things don't have words yet. Art therapy gives them somewhere to go, through color, texture, movement, and materials that each carry their own energy. Watercolor moves and spreads. A fine-tip pen holds a hard line. What you reach for and how you use it tells us something.
The process is directive: we make something, and then we look at what came through together. The symbols, the choices, the feelings that showed up on the page. No artistic experience needed. Just a willingness to see what surfaces.

Individual Therapy
One-on-one work grounded in attachment theory and genuine curiosity about who you are and how you got here. We'll look at what's driving the patterns, trace them back to where they started, and build real change from there. The goal isn't just coping better. It's trusting yourself enough to know the difference.
