About Sara

Sara Jettawi is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Sara lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, and pregnancy and childbirth.

Sara uses a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening and collaboration. She pays attention to attachment patterns and how early relationships affect current struggles. Sessions can include mindfulness and trauma-focused work to help people manage intense memories and strong emotions.

Her practice incorporates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, and she uses internal family systems ideas alongside the adaptive information processing model. She blends these methods with somatic awareness, noticing how the body reflects stress and trauma. This means sessions may include attention to breath, physical sensations, and grounding techniques alongside talk work.

Sara often helps people untangle relationship patterns, cope with caregiver burden, and navigate separation or divorce-related distress. She also supports those working on body image, guilt and shame, and questions around life purpose. The emphasis is on practical strategies and gradual change rather than quick fixes.

People who contact her complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Sara draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. This approach involves noticing relational needs and practicing new ways of relating to others and to oneself, which can help with communication problems and caregiver strain.

She also uses trauma-focused methods and EMDR-informed techniques to address distressing memories and post-traumatic stress. Trauma-focused work typically involves pacing, grounding, and processing memories in ways that reduce their intensity over time. EMDR-informed methods in session may include bilateral stimulation paired with guided processing to support memory integration.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sara will discuss options with each person, consider preferences and goals, and adjust methods as therapy progresses. The plan is shaped together rather than prescribed in advance.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find video or phone appointments help them keep consistent work on stress, parenting strain, and relationship patterns without rearranging a whole day.
