Our Services

We support partners in strengthening connection, improving communication, and navigating conflict with care and respect. Informed by evidence-based approaches such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, sessions focus on deepening emotional bonds, rebuilding trust, and fostering healthier relationship patterns.
Relationships can be one of our greatest sources of comfort—and also our greatest challenges. Couples therapy at Sahara Psychology supports partners in navigating emotional disconnect, repeated conflict cycles, and communication breakdowns with care and clarity. Grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), sessions are designed to help each partner feel safer, seen, and more securely connected.
We also recognize that relationships don’t exist in a vacuum. Cultural expectations, intergenerational values, and identity-based pressures often shape how we show up with our partners. Whether you're navigating differing belief systems, family involvement, or the complexities of bicultural or interracial relationships, therapy offers a space to explore these dynamics with compassion and intention.
We provide inclusive, sex-positive therapy for individuals in polyamorous, queer, and ethically non-monogamous (ENM) communities. As a kink-aware and nonjudgmental practice, we recognize the richness, complexity, and validity of diverse relationship structures and sexual expressions. We work with clients exploring consensual power dynamics, sexual identity, relationship agreements, or communication challenges in non-traditional relationship models. Whether you’re navigating jealousy, attachment in open relationships, or healing from trauma within a stigmatized context, we offer a grounded space for integration and growth.

We offer compassionate, evidence-based support for individuals and families navigating the emotional challenges of pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. Our work is grounded in advanced training in perinatal mental health and certification through Postpartum Support International (PMH-C), reflecting our specialized expertise in supporting mental health across the perinatal journey.
We provide care for a wide range of experiences, including postpartum depression and anxiety, pregnancy or infant loss, birth trauma, fertility challenges, intrusive thoughts, overwhelm, rage, and relationship strain. We also support parents who are feeling isolated, disconnected from themselves or their baby, struggling with bonding, or navigating the identity shifts and role transitions that often accompany becoming a parent.
We offer trauma-informed and emotionally attuned support for individuals who have experienced pregnancy loss, abortion, stillbirth, or medical termination. We understand that reproductive grief is deeply personal and can carry layers of shame, guilt, relief, or silence—often made more difficult by cultural stigma or a lack of social support. We also support those navigating fertility challenges, complicated pregnancies, birth trauma, and identity shifts in the perinatal period.
With a warm, non-judgmental approach, we create a safe and supportive space to process your experiences, reduce distress, and help you feel more grounded, capable, and connected during this transformative and often vulnerable time.

At Sahara Psychology, we provide a space where racialized and BIPOC clients don’t have to translate their experiences in order to be understood. Therapy here acknowledges the emotional toll of navigating racism, cultural expectations, intergenerational pressure, and the complexities of identity in a world that often overlooks or minimizes them.
With a focus on compassion, emotional safety, and cultural humility, sessions explore how these lived experiences impact mental health, relationships, and the stories we carry about ourselves. Whether it’s the exhaustion of code-switching, feeling caught between cultures, or the quiet weight of being “strong” for too long—your pain is valid, and your healing matters.
