Healing takes more than just talking—it takes getting to the root.

I’m Sage Funk, LPC-Associate under the supervision of Kelley Akins, LPC-S. With advanced training in Brainspotting—a powerful brain-body therapy, similar to EMDR, that helps process what traditional talk therapy often can’t reach. I specialize in complex trauma, dissociation, attachment wounds, religious trauma, sexual trauma, and LGBTQIA-affirming care.

Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of who they are. Together, we use neuroscience-informed approaches to release what’s been weighing you down and to help you reconnect with your authentic self—so you can feel grounded, whole, and free to live a life that truly fits you.

Whether you or your child is dealing with the challenges of ADHD, Anxiety or Depression,  navigating the complexities of Autism, or simply feeling overwhelmed with everyday life, I firmly believe that, together, we can create a space for healing.  

Each client's journey is unique and it is my greatest passion to ensure that you feel seen, heard and understood.  Together we will work towards finding your voice, tapping into your inner strength and recognizing all of the things that make you truly special. 

If you are looking for a space for you or your child to work towards unlocking potential, fostering resilience, and achieving contentment. You don’t have to do it alone,  I am here to help support you.

Do you feel stuck, lost, anxious, depressed, afraid, or angry? Of course, we all feel strong emotions at times. I specialize in working with clients that have tried counseling and given up, feel hopeless, helpless, and desperate for someone to meet them where they are and guide them to the best version of themselves! 

It brings me joy, day after day, to see my clients heal from lifelong pain, and find confidence that seemed unimaginable before. In our first intake session, my goal is for you to leave feeling heard and with a sense of hope. I am ready to take the next steps with you, answer your questions, and help you feel safe and supported along the way! 

I know what it’s like to battle self-doubt, fear of failure, and the constant pressure to perform. As a former college basketball player, I spent years chasing perfection, tying my self-worth to my results, and struggling to trust myself in high-pressure moments. That journey is what ignited my passion—helping others break free from the same mental barriers.

With over eight years of experience as a teacher and coach, and three years as a mental performance specialist, I’ve worked with athletes, high achievers, and individuals who feel stuck in their own expectations. I’ve learned that confidence isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build. Whether you’re an athlete striving for the next level, a competitor caught in overthinking, or someone simply trying to silence your inner critic, I’m here to help.

Through mindset training, emotional resilience work, and evidence-based mental performance strategies, we’ll transform self-doubt into self-trust, shift your focus from fear to opportunity, and develop the unshakable mindset that allows you to perform—and live—with more freedom.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone. If you’re ready to unlock your full potential—not just in your sport or career, but in how you see yourself—I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s get to work!
