Hi, I'm Sara Taylor, PhD.

I help people who feel dissatisfied with how life is going despite having done a lot of personal work  (esp. around anxiety and depression). I help them to access more of their potential, meaning, and momentum.

As a former behavioral neuroscientist and psychology professor, I specialized in understanding how stress impacts mental health.

Over time, I realized that a life worth living doesn’t come from just managing symptoms—it’s through addressing the hidden patterns and deeper existential dilemmas that shape how we experience and make meaning out of life.

Now, I combine my background in neuroscience with systemic family constellations, existential psychology, and somatic and Norse shamanic techniques to help clients move through the deeper influences that hold them back.

REady to overcome your hidden patterns?

Client Feedback

I get to be a better version of myself because of this work.

You are teaching us how to be human again, how we are supposed to be wired in the first place.  I feel like I’m being taught how to be what I was supposed to be. 

I think that every single person in the world should do this work.

Client Feedback

 When I started this work, I felt like a shell of a human. I was exhausted, pessimistic, lacking vision, creativity, joy, or any desire to do much of anything.

After doing this work, I found freedom to exist in a way that feels true to who I am.

Client Feedback

Sara is absolutely amazing and what she does is difficult to explain in words yet absolutely life changing to experience.

Client Feedback

I can’t get over how good sessions with Sara are!

So much healing, progress, and recovery all in one session.

She is the perfect balance of skill and intuition and offers you kindness as you work through your challenges.
