Dr Sarah Edmonds
Licensed Psychologist
“I focus on relationship issues, trauma, depression, and anxiety. I'm certified in Coherence Therapy and experienced in Nonviolent Communication. I also am versed Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy. My interests include estrangement, psychosis, and minimizing the use of psychiatric medications.”
About Me
I help individuals navigate relationship issues, trauma, depression, and anxiety. We can work together to understand and shift long-standing patterns, drawing on approaches like Coherence Therapy. You might also find practical tools from Nonviolent Communication helpful for clearer understanding. This supports those grappling with estrangement or considering alternatives to psychiatric medication. My aim is to offer a collaborative path towards lasting change.
Approach
I focus on uncovering the emotional learnings that keep painful patterns in place and then work to transform them through focused emotional processing. In Flagstaff and via secure online sessions I alternate emotionally intense exploration with practical communication practice inspired by Nonviolent Communication. Sessions are collaborative and paced to your tolerance—sometimes short, concentrated interventions informed by ISTDP and Coherence Therapy, sometimes gentler, reflective work—with concrete experiments to try between meetings. This way of working often fits people seeking clearer connection, relief from entrenched symptoms, or thoughtful alternatives to heavier medication.
