Sara Loughlin, LCSW
Los Angeles, CA
I’m a couples specialist who creates a warm, non-judgmental space where partners feel heard, supported, and guided toward practical solutions. I help couples navigate communication struggles, life stressors, and relationship challenges while encouraging connection, personal fulfillment, and even a little humor along the way. My goal is to empower couples to express themselves, reconnect, and build a stronger, healthier relationship.
