JOURNEY INTO DEEPER HEALING
NAVIGATING the DEPTHS of
LIFE'S CHALLENGES
with CARE and CLARITY
The váthos (depth) within each person is as vast and profound as the ocean itself. Just as the ocean can be both violent and serene, so too can our inner worlds. Váthos Counseling was born from a deep, passionate desire to create a sanctuary — a safe space to explore and bring to light the profound depths within.
DISCOVER DEEPER PURPOSE
AND MEANING IN EVERY STEP
Each person carries a unique world within them, filled with memories, pain, loss, heartache, hopes, desires, and dreams. Navigating this depth can often feel overwhelming, but our mission is simple: to offer a guiding hand to those willing to embark on this journey of self-discovery and healing.

SARA PRICE
Sara was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Before transitioning to the field of mental health, she began her professional career in accounting, earning a Bachelor's degree from the University of Alabama and a Master's degree from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
After completing her education and certification in accounting, Sara moved to New York to work for Ernst & Young as an auditor in the financial services sector. Throughout her accounting career, Sara traveled the world, living and working in India and the Cayman Islands. It was during this time that she developed a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and the shared human experiences that unite us all.
As Sara navigated her own personal journey of mental, emotional, and relational healing, she felt a strong calling to help others in their own healing processes. After returning to Birmingham from the Cayman Islands, where she had cultivated a love for ocean life and SCUBA diving, Sara decided to pivot her career and pursue counseling. She began working toward a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health at Liberty University, where one of her most memorable experiences was traveling to Kigali, Rwanda, to engage in trauma care.
Sara also completed her counseling practicum and internship at HillCrest Behavioral Health Hospital, where she worked with adults and adolescents facing severe mental and behavioral health challenges.
Sara now resides in Birmingham, where she enjoys hiking, traveling, and spending time with friends and family and practices as an Associate Licensed Counselor (ALC) supervised by Whitney Knox McDaniel (Alabama / SC01089).
