This month, we’re so excited to introduce you to Sashay Lurry, LLPC, a thoughtful and empowering therapist who specializes in working with children and adolescents.

🤍 Meet Sashay

Sashay joined Inspired Healing Therapy in December 2024, bringing with her a natural ability to truly notice people—who they are, what they’re carrying, and where they may feel stuck.

Her path to becoming a therapist was rooted in this gift:
A deep desire to support individuals as they navigate the barriers in their lives and move toward growth.

“My approach is unique in that it includes educational lessons, compelling discussion, and calming strategies to adjust to the clients needs in the moment.” -

She meets each client where they are—adjusting the pace and focus to fit their needs in the moment.

🌿 Creating a Safe Space

For Sashay, therapy starts with building a foundation of comfort, trust, and inclusion.

She prioritizes ongoing check-ins to ensure that each client feels safe and supported—not just at the beginning, but throughout the entire process.

Because therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s a space that should evolve with you.

💛 The Heart Behind Her Work

One of the most meaningful parts of Sashay’s work is being able to hold space for individuals who may not have had one before.

She also finds deep fulfillment in watching clients grow—especially when they reach a point where they’ve met their goals and are ready for the next phase of their journey.

At the core of her work is a strong belief:

Everyone deserves the opportunity to grow and evolve.

🌸 A Little More About Sashay

Outside of the therapy room, Sashay enjoys:

  • Spending time outdoors

  • Listening to music

  • Reading love stories on her Kindle

Fun fact: She once participated in a circus act on a high swinging trapeze—complete with flips and tricks (though she’ll tell you she’s not planning a career change anytime soon 😉).

🌿 For New Clients

If you’re considering therapy—especially for your child or teen—Sashay wants you to know:

You don’t have to jump in all at once.

From the very beginning, you’ll have a dedicated and supportive presence in your corner. Sessions move at your pace, and the first few meetings are simply about getting to know each other.

If you’re feeling unsure, you’re welcome to start with a 15-minute consultation to ask questions and explore if it feels like the right fit.

There’s no pressure—just support.
