Sarah Scheidler, MSW
Registered Associate Clinical Social Worker
California Board of Behavioral Sciences
Sarah (she/her) believes in the power of the therapeutic relationship and post traumatic growth. While having a foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Theory, Systems Theory and Attachment Theory, Sarah’s approach expands healing potential by offering trauma-informed interventions guided by Expressive Therapy, nervous system regulation, interpersonal neurobiology, and mindfulness.
Sarah has run from bullets, faced sudden death and betrayals. She is a mother of four brillant, hysterical and maddening children. Cultivating a life she loves is a passion, she does this in part by providing services to children, adolescents and adults in a variety of settings. She has worked alongside these clients in the yoga studio, Full Service Partnership programs, Domestic Violence Prevention, School Based Services, Outpatient Clinics, and Expressive Art Groups individually, as family units and in groups. Sarah creates spaces where both sacred and irreverent are offered a seat at the table.
