About
I’m Sarah Theimer, M.Ed, LPC, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II). I provide online counseling for adults across Virginia, specializing in anxiety, trauma, and stress recovery. My approach blends compassion with gentle challenge, helping you feel both supported and motivated toward meaningful change. I use evidence-based treatments such as EMDR, CBT, and CPT to address not just surface symptoms but the root causes beneath them. Whether you’re navigating everyday stress, past trauma, or the unique challenges of being a first responder or spouse, I work alongside you to build resilience, find balance, and move toward a more fulfilling life.
My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
At Breakthrough Mental Health Counseling, we believe in one true God and that salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. As Sarah Theimer continues to grow in her walk with the Lord, she values the importance of inviting God into every part of life, including therapy. In our practice, we welcome the presence of Jesus and the Holy Spirit into the counseling room. For clients who desire it, this may include incorporating prayer, Scripture, and biblical truths alongside evidence-based approaches like EMDR, CBT, and CPT, creating a holistic space for both spiritual and emotional growth.
