Sarah is compassionate, always accessible and creative in the way she provided counselling to patients. She has an innate ability to understand what people are going through, adjusting to so many challenges and changes in roles, and made them feel supported and safe to open up to her and discuss the challenges of aging. And she worked with the families trying to adjust to the changes their Mom and Dad were going through. I never saw her angry or frustrated. She was always very enthusiastic with such a good attitude.
I had the privilege to work with Sarah as she presented her Purposeful Aging series to our local senior center. She offered a multiple session interactive program focusing on helping seniors to discover purpose and meaning through their transition into an aging and retired lifestyle. I watched (and even participated) as she engaged her participants in thoughtful and thought-provoking concepts to identify meaning and importance within a life they were now engaged. This program encouraged them to create their lives with a direction that continues to bring joy and comfort. Sarah’s program was well constructed and researched. I highly recommend it for any senior programming and for everyone looking to find meaning through life’s later transitions.
This past year, Sarah enlivened our center with her monthly interactive lectures. The group attendants were energized by her knowledge, passion and insight. She has a strong ability to empathize and connect to others, as well as validate a situation as the individual is empowered to change. The group embraced and were inspired by her ideas and perspective . Sarah's optimistic, dynamic, personality and perspective are a great fit for those seeking a vibrant and effective psychotherapist.
