Sarah Turnmire, LPC

Therapist

My biggest passion in life is helping people grow into the best version of themselves. As a therapist, I desire to create a safe space to help you discover your goals and then work alongside to empower you to achieve those goals.

The foundation of my approach to therapy is from an IPT approach with an addition of CBT and DBT practices. I believe that often times, the therapeutic process goes beyond any one specific method or approach.

In addition to my work at Storywell, I love being outdoors, reading, and spending time with the people most dear to my heart. The best case is when I can combine all three!

  • Anxiety & Depression

    Depression and anxiety can impact your thoughts, emotions, and daily life, making it hard to feel like yourself. Sarah offers compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help you make sense of your experiences, develop effective coping strategies, and take steps toward healing and hope.

  • Grief & Loss

    Sarah provides compassionate guidance through all forms of loss—death of a loved one, divorce, career changes, or any significant life transition. Find support for complicated grief, ambiguous loss, and learn how to carry your grief while moving forward with meaning.

  • Life Transitions

    Change, whether planned or unexpected, can bring uncertainty and emotional overwhelm. Sarah provides compassionate, evidenced-based therapy to help you process emotions, manage stress, and regain a sense of stability during times of transition.

  • Relationship Issues

    Navigating conflict, communication struggles, or patterns that keep repeating in your relationships can leave you feeling stuck or disconnected. Sarah offers compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help you understand your relational patterns, build healthier communication skills, and cultivate more fulfilling connections in your life.

Therapeutic Approach

  • Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

    IPT is a structured therapy that focuses on how your relationships and life changes affect your mood. By working through grief, conflict, role changes, or social disconnection, IPT helps you strengthen your relationships and relieve emotional distress.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

    CBT is a practical, evidence-based therapy that helps you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. By building new skills and perspectives, CBT empowers you to manage symptoms, solve problems, and respond to life's challenges with greater confidence.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

    DBT combines acceptance and change-based strategies to help you manage intense emotions and improve relationships. Through skills in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness, DBT supports greater stability and connection in your daily life.

  • Christian Counseling

    For clients who wish to integrate their Christian faith into therapy, Christian counseling combines spirituality with evidence-based care. Whether seeking strength, navigating doubt, or wanting a therapist who understands your beliefs, this approach supports healing through a spiritual lens.
