Sarina holds a Master’s degree in Special Education and Bachelor’s Degree in Behavioral Science from Wilmington University. She is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma Informed Therapy.

Utilizing a variety of evidence-based interventions, Sarina draws on valuable skills from the CBT and Trauma Informed Therapy palette to help rally emotional regulation, mindfulness practices, and incite greater awareness of the mind/body connection. 

No matter the challenge, Sarina takes a holistic approach to providing care that represents the connection of root causes to physical behaviors/circumstances. This approach aids in the promotion of long-term wholeness and healing in the body, mind, and supports children and adolescents in cultivating a strong sense of self. Sarina believes that every child has the potential and right to experience a balanced and nourishing life unique to their wants and needs.
