Sarah Craig is a Registered Provisional Psychologist based in Edmonton, Alberta. She supports children, teens, adults, and families through assessment and therapy, with a focus on autism, ADHD, psychoeducational concerns, trauma, attachment, and nervous system regulation. Her work is grounded in the belief that behaviour, emotions, learning, and relationships are best understood in the context of the body, early experiences, and the ways people have learned to adapt to their environments. 

Sarah provides comprehensive autism, ADHD, and psychoeducational assessments from a trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and somatically grounded perspective. She integrates standardized assessment tools with careful attention to nervous system regulation, sensory processing, developmental history, and lived experience. Her goal is to help clients and families move beyond confusing or fragmented concerns toward a clearer understanding of strengths, needs, and practical next steps. 

In counselling, Sarah helps clients work toward greater emotional regulation, relational safety, and connection with themselves and others. Her therapeutic approach is rooted in somatic psychotherapy and attachment repair, drawing from advanced training in Somatic Experiencing® and somatic attachment-based work. She also integrates polyvagal-informed practice, DBT, TF-CBT, and other trauma-focused approaches to help clients make sense of survival-based patterns and develop more flexible, connected, and resilient ways of coping. 

Sarah has a particular passion for supporting clients who have experienced developmental trauma, relational stress, or disrupted attachment. She recognizes that concerns such as anxiety, behavioural challenges, attention difficulties, emotional intensity, and social struggles are often meaningful adaptations rather than isolated symptoms. Her work focuses on gently understanding these patterns and supporting change through increased awareness, regulation, and relational safety. 

Clients often describe Sarah’s style as warm, thoughtful, and collaborative. She strives to create a space where people feel respected, understood, and supported, while also being gently invited to notice patterns, build insight, and move toward meaningful change. 

Across both assessment and therapy, Sarah is known for translating complex psychological and neurobiological concepts into language that feels clear, validating, and empowering. She is committed to helping clients and families feel less alone in what they are experiencing, better understand the patterns behind their challenges, and leave with a path forward that feels thoughtful, practical, and hopeful.
