Meet Sarah Ziegler, LCPC, PEL
About Me
Hi, I’m Sarah — a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), and Licensed School Counselor (PEL) based in Northfield, IL. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, chronic illness or pain, and complex trauma. Many of the people I work with are also moving through challenges like relationship concerns, school refusal, or looking for 504/IEP support.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real-life experience. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies including EMDR, IFS, CBT, DBT, and ACT to support healing, insight, and growth. I believe that therapy should feel like a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by change, stuck in old patterns, or just ready to feel more like you again, I’m here to help you make sense of the chaos, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
I offer both in-person sessions in Northfield, IL, and virtual sessions for clients across the state. If you're curious about working together, I’d love to connect.
