Sarah Henley Psychotherapy & EMDR

We got this.
I’m so grateful to be of service in this way at this time. If you’re struggling and need someone to talk to without telling you to find the silver lining or that you do or don’t have it as bad as other people, I’m here! I am accepting new clients for short term (or longer) work all over California via telehealth. Link in profile if you’d like a free 15 minute consultation.

I’ve been revisiting the enneagram lately. I was first introduced to it about 5 years ago and have struggled to really feel like I know which type I am. How bout you? Do you know your enneagram type? What about mixing the enneagram and therapy?
Thanks to for this awesome list about how the nine types approach tattoos! 😂😍

I really love this. Who agrees??

As some of you know, there was a tragedy at this year's Burning Man event.

Many people were witness to a man running into the flames during Saturday night's burn. For those people who knew this man, for those who witnessed this act, and for those who hold the Burning Man Community dear to their hearts, this incident has caused great pain, sadness, anger, and confusion.

Even if, logically, you don't think you "should" be traumatized, you still may be. Trauma has a way of touching people vicariously. You may have simply heard the story, but find yourself deeply affected.

So with compassion, and without judgment, please notice if you are having recurring thoughts, images, nightmares, crying spells, or other out of the ordinary experiences related to this incident. You don't have to sit with this all alone. There is help!

Trauma recovery requires immediate attention to start the healing process. If you or someone you know was affected directly or indirectly by this incident, please contact me. I am offering a limited number of low-cost and pro-bono EMDR sessions.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapeutic tool and is extremely effective with traumatic incidents. EMDR can help discharge the repetitive images, thoughts, sounds, and sensations that often accompany trauma.

I am located in the Bay Area, with offices in Oakland and San Francisco, so I am limited to those areas. If you are not in the Bay Area, I will do my best to connect you with another practitioner who can help.

All my best,

Sarah Henley, LMFT

What do you do when you're feeling powerless? What do you do to turn despair into love? Art has always been my salvation and my escape, and when I put my whole heart into it, it is true .

New blog, link in profile!"Who are you protecting?" "When we're in the process of therapy... the deep digging that's done can unearth a lot of stuff that we've been so far successful at avoiding. When we're really doing the hard work involved in changing ourselves, our own personal construction zones can feel confusing, messy and just too much at times. So we survey ourselves and say, 'nope!' We put up the yellow caution tape and plop down the 'danger' sign right in the middle of life."

Woohoo!! I'm now open on Wednesdays in Oakland! I specialize in anxiety, trauma, self-esteem and maternal mental health. Accepting new clients at both my SF and Oakland offices. **kstigma **koppression

Got to spend some time today at a place that made a huge impact on my life - . This space is on the 6th floor and has seen an abundance of creativity from the students. I'm humbled and grateful to have been asked to come back as a teacher... can't wait to get my juices flowing again.
