Sarah Ingalls

Mental Health Therapist
My name is Sarah (she/her), a dedicated temporary Mental Health Counselor in Ankeny, Iowa. Recognizing the bravery it takes to seek therapy, I'm grateful to be a part of your support system. I believe in normalizing mental health and fostering holistic wellness. In therapy, I aim to inspire self-growth and exploration, with you in the driver's seat and me as a supportive passenger. My passion lies in working with adults and adolescents, offering support and guidance through their unique journeys.
Creating a safe, non-judgmental space is my priority in working with clients. I believe everyone deserves to be heard and understood, fostering exploration and unraveling places of confusion and pain, which is foundational in mental health and therapy. My approach is rooted in the belief that our experiences are shaped by deep-rooted narratives, offering therapy as an opportunity to listen deeply, respond intentionally, and forge new paths. I specialize in supporting clients with depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship conflict, and more.
Utilizing a person-centered lens, I prioritize trust, respect, and collaboration, tailoring my approach to each individual's needs. However, I utilize different theories and techniques based on what works best for each individual client. It's an honor to join you on your journey towards a more joyful future, and I'm eager to meet you, work alongside you, and help you achieve your goals.
