Clinical Social Work Practice – Connection & Wholeness Therapy
Connection & Wholeness Therapy specializes in trauma resolution and is operated by Sara Turner, LCSW, SEP (Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner). The North Scottsdale office is located at 14354 N Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd, Suite C-20, Scottsdale, Arizona 85260. Telehealth services extend to clients in Arizona, North Carolina, and Iowa.
Clinical modalities offered at the practice include EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Somatic Experiencing, Deep Brain Reorienting, and Post Induction Therapy. Turner’s approach centers on nervous system regulation and the identification of root causes underlying psychological difficulties, rather than managing symptoms in isolation. The therapeutic philosophy emphasizes safety and connection, drawing on the principle that the body holds records of lived experience as a pathway toward healing. Treatment is described as integrating mind-body work in a way that addresses how stress and trauma are stored physiologically as well as psychologically.
Adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma are the primary client population. A distinct specialty area is therapy for mothers and birthing families, addressing concerns tied to the perinatal and postpartum period. Consultation services are also available for other licensed therapists seeking professional clinical guidance.
Sessions are offered in both in-person and telehealth formats. A free 15-minute phone consultation is available for prospective clients to determine whether the practice is an appropriate fit before committing to sessions. The practice aims to respond to all inquiries within 2 to 3 business days.
Insurance acceptance and session fee information are not specified on the practice’s website. Turner’s credentials as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) reflect advanced training in the body-based approach developed by Peter Levine, which informs a significant portion of the clinical framework used with trauma clients. The inclusion of Deep Brain Reorienting and Post Induction Therapy alongside EMDR and Somatic Experiencing reflects an approach that draws from multiple trauma-focused disciplines rather than a single method. Clients working on perinatal issues, early relational trauma, or complex developmental histories are among those described as appropriate for the practice.
