Sara listens carefully to the issues I bring up and helps me reframe my thoughts in a way that allows me to move past painful emotions and memories. She is great at building rapport which helps us quickly dive into the issues with limited time

I don’t know where I’d be without Sara, but I do know it wouldn’t be anywhere good. She makes it a point to really listen and then help me process and react to my issues in the best way possible. This has helped me remove chaos in situations when before I use to react and add to it. To me you know when therapy is working when you don’t have to wait to speak with your therapist to figure out how to react. 10/10

Sara is an excellent listener and her advice always gives me a fresh perspective often it’s information that I know because I’m a therapist but hearing it and hearing it come from somebody else it’s like I’m hearing it for the first time. I really do appreciate her and I’m not usually a fan of Therapy that is not in person but this is working out just fine

Sara is a wonderful therapist. She is patient, attentive, empathetic, and intelligent. Sara provides a safe space for me to be vulnerable and she appropriately challenges my thinking when needed. I am grateful for the education and support Sara offers. I truly feel and can reflect on the progress I have been making in my personal life since working with Sara. Any client of Sara's is lucky to have her!
