Sara Riesner, MA, LPC, is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults navigating trauma, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, identity exploration, OCD, neurodivergent experiences such as ADHD and autism, parenting stress, attachment-related struggles, and grief. She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and her Master of Arts in Applied Psychology from NYU Steinhardt. She is also EMDR trained.
Her therapeutic approach is integrative and grounded in a relational lens. She believes therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, authentic, and responsive to each individual rather than centered on a single modality. Sara strives to create a supportive space where clients feel understood and empowered to explore the emotional patterns that shape their lives.
Before becoming a therapist, Sara worked professionally as a singer and has experience in television, radio, film, and voice acting. Cinema and music remain personal passions, and family is what she values most.
