Sarah Rieke, LPC
About Me
At Pax Counseling and Wellness I am committed to helping individuals in the state of Virginia heal from complex relational trauma through virtual EMDR intensives that honor your time and empower lasting transformation. I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where healing begins, resilience grows, and a new chapter can unfold. Through an EMDR Intensive Model, I can help you achieve these goals in a time-effective way with long-lasting impact.
Education & Experience
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Virginia. I earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Old Dominion University. I developed a heart for working with complex trauma through my work with veteran and active duty populations. I earned my EMDR Training from Waves Psychotherapy, and completed EMDR Certification through Beyond Healing Institute (pending EMDRIA approval, estimated June 2025). EMDR has become an integral part of my work, and I am passionate about helping clients achieve the lasting benefits that EMDR can offer.
