My Ideal Client

Hi, I’m Sara Carmona (she/her), I am a reproductive mental health specialist working with people of across the full span of their reproductive lives - from menarche to menopause. This includes support for fertility challenges, pregnancy and postpartum mood disorders, abortion care, miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, birth trauma, and postpartum psychosis recovery. I also work with individuals navigating the spectrum of premenstrual mood disorders and perimenopause/menopause-related changes.

Our Approach to Helping

My approach is collaborative and relational. I believe healing happens through support, connection, conversation and the sharing of practical tools that make a difference in daily life. I draw from evidence-based therapeutic interventions while centering your lived experience, strengths, and goals. Together, we’ll explore what’s hard, build insight, and identify steps that feel manageable and meaningful. River City Counseling LLC welcomes individuals of all cultures, races, abilities, religions, sexual orientations, and gender identities. I am open to coordinating care with your medical team, family, or other individuals you'd like to involve in your counseling services.
