Meet Sara Fetterly 🌿
Sara Fetterly, LSW, brings a warm, thoughtful, and deeply collaborative presence to their work with clients. Sara believes therapeutic growth begins in relationships where people feel safe to show up as their full selves. Sara works with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and challenges in intimacy and relationships.

Sara's approach is integrative and client-centered, drawing from psychodynamic, relational, parts work, liberation psychology, and evidence-based therapies like ACT and DBT. Sara’s work makes space for curiosity, nuance, and even humor — honoring both the complexity and contradictions that can show up in healing.

Sara offers virtual and in-person therapy and is s*x-, kink-, and poly-affirming, with extensive experience supporting q***r clients. We’re really glad they're a part of the Wildflower team.

Curious about working with Sara? Reach out — we’d love to help you get connected.

✨ What if being hard on yourself isn’t actually helping?

In a culture that rewards productivity and perfection, many of us learn to believe that self-criticism is what keeps us successful. But in reality, it often leads to burnout, shame, and never feeling like enough.

Our therapist Amanda Matousek, LCSW, PMH-C explores this through RO-DBT, which looks at different coping styles—like overcontrol (perfectionism, overthinking, difficulty resting). These traits have strengths and costs.

✨ Growth doesn’t mean doing less “right.”
Sometimes it means:
• resting without earning it
• letting things be imperfect
• choosing play, connection, or ease

These small moments of flexibility help our nervous systems feel safe—and that’s where real change happens. 💛

Curious to learn more? Our therapists at Wildflower are here to help.
