Dr. Sarah Kyle

I would start with a morning meditation and a CrossFit workout. Then I would take a walk around the lake with my partner and my two rescue pups, followed by some cooking, reading, and writing.

I became a therapist because I had a life-changing experience as a client. I can’t think of anything more rewarding than helping facilitate this kind of transformation for others.

My mentor often reminds me that everything is impermanent, so don’t squander the good times worrying they won’t last, and don’t get bogged down by the hard times because they will pass.

My kids tell me I have unsophisticated musical taste because I’m drawn to cheesy top-40 radio. I don’t watch a ton of shows, but I loved Shrinking, Yellowstone, Nobody Wants This, and The Americans. I spent a lot of years at UT, so the Longhorns will always be my fave. Favorite book is A Prayer For Owen Meany, closely followed by A Little Life.

I hope each client will walk away from sessions with an insight about something they were unaware of, as well as a concrete action they can take to feel better about themselves and their relationships.

The practice of gratitude and looking for what’s going right has a daily positive impact on my identity. I bring this world view into sessions, which influences how I feel about my clients and how they feel about themselves. They often adopt this practice themselves, so the ripple effect goes on to impact countless people.
