About

Emotionally Focused Therapy to help you soothe and connect

Sara Schramer, MA LCPC therapist and owner of Soothing Connections. Soothing Connections Counseling helps couples and individuals build and strengthen connections in soothing, safe, and secure relationships. It is our wiring at our core to need safe and secure attachments. It is my primary focus to help you understand what is at the root of your experiences in order to create lasting change, so that you are able to thrive in all areas of your life. Whether addressing anxiety, relational conflicts, or any other issues, we all need first to feel safe and secure in our connection with another. I strive to create that experience in each session to provide the space you need to grow in the most impactful ways. I take a compassionate and intentional approach so that you can feel seen, heard, and valued in our relationship as we work together through whatever you are facing. I specialize in attachment based approaches, primarily using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help clients soothe and reach their goals. I focus in relationships, anxiety and trauma. I see a variety of relational issues (couples conflicts/wounds, communication challenges, boundaries, etc.) I see a variety of anxiety issues (OCD, social anxiety, fears/phobias, GAD).
