Sage Ahrens-Nichols, LSWAIC (she/they)

Sage is passionate about working with individuals who experience chronic shame. Whether that shame stems from childhood trauma, belonging to historically marginalized communities, societal stigmas, internalized biases, unhealthy relationships, or other life experiences, Sage will guide you on a path to healing and genuine self-acceptance.

Sage loves working with neurodiverse teens (16+) and young adults in finding their voice and the power to create the life they have been dreaming about as they navigate entering higher education or the workforce. The transition from adolescence into adulthood can be stressful and overwhelming. Sage is here to help you build the tools and resources you need to succeed in achieving your goals.

As a neurodivergent therapist, Sage is highly skilled in working with individuals with AuDHD, Autism, ADHD, and other neurodiverse conditions. Their guiding philosophy is to meet every person where they are, honoring their unique story with empathy and respect. With dedication in creating inclusive and safe spaces that allow for exploration and healing, Sage recognizes the strengths within each individual. Together you will collaborate on building skills and embracing your authentic self.

It can be difficult to find a therapist that understands the unique challenges our service members and their families face. As a Veteran and military spouse, Sage is ready to help you manage the stressors, worries, and responsibilities that come with serving our country. Together you will work to address the complex issues that can stem from service, including trauma and PTSD, with an individualized plan that will allow you to achieve your goals.

Finding at therapist that is the right fit can be hard, and when you are looking for a therapist that specializes in working with LGBTQIA+ it can feel impossible. Sage is a queer therapist that is committed to being a safe person and creating a safe space in therapy.
