Inner Jewel Counseling
Sarah Curts

Underneath the struggles, hurts, and trauma of life there is a shining jewel. It is the source of your resilience and provides an inner knowing of how to navigate the hard and enjoy the good on your path. Sometimes the static of anxiety and sadness can obscure its signal, to the point you don't know how to find or trust it. My role as a counselor is to help you locate and rest in its light, so you can navigate your path without fear of getting it wrong.
I specialize in the following areas:
-
Trauma Recovery
-
Addiction
-
Anxiety
-
Depression
-
Eating Disorders
-
Grief and Loss
-
Coping with Miscarriage and Infertility
-
Life Transitions
-
Self Esteem
-
Those who still feel stuck even though they’ve “tried everything”
My training is in:
-
Person-Centered Therapy
-
Mindfulness
-
Motivational Interviewing
-
Restoration Therapy
-
Somatic Re-Education Therapy (similar to Somatic Experiencing)
I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I am a Registered Associate Counselor, license #R9203, and operate under the supervision of Carla McGhee, LPC-C5201. I specialized in Person-Centered Therapy, Trauma Recovery, Addiction, and mood disorders including Depression and Anxiety during my coursework. I took additional courses on Motivational Interviewing and Restoration Therapy during my Internship. I am currently enrolled in the Somatic Experiencing certification program. Previous to my Master’s I was a Somatic Re-Education Therapist, a bodywork technique that helps release trauma from the nervous system that is similar to Somatic Experiencing. From 2009 – 2016 I trained Mindfulness intensively under a spiritual teacher, which gave me many tools for creating a wholly new life experience.
I learned a long time ago that insight without kindness can do more harm than good. For that reason, I lean in with acceptance, safety, and unconditional positive regard for my clients. Whatever you are going through there is a way through, and we will figure it out together.
I also offer services at Thrive as a Somatic Intuitive, under the name Jewel Marin.
