TAKING THE FIRST STEP
Reaching out for counselling support can feel like a big step. You might be unsure about what you need or where to begin—and that's completely normal. The fact that you're exploring your options means you're already on the right path.

Have Questions First?
If you'd like to determine if we're the right fit or have other questions before booking, please email me at sara.menla@gmail.com.
I'll help assess your needs and either schedule your first session or guide you toward services that better match what you're looking for.

How Booking Works
I strive to make scheduling as convenient as possible with an up-to-date online calendar.
Simple Booking Process:
1. Choose between a video session (recommended for stable internet) or a phone session
2. Select your preferred date and time
3. New clients will receive confirmation of your request, while returning clients can book directly
My Availability
Weekdays: Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday (daytime appointments)

Important Notice About Crisis Support
Please note: As a private practice, I do not provide emergency or crisis services. If you're experiencing a mental health emergency or are in immediate distress, please visit our Emergency Resources page for 24/7 support options, or call 911 if you or someone else is in immediate danger.
For current clients experiencing increased distress but not in crisis, please email me, and I will respond during my next available business hours.
