Bio
Sarah has been working to facilitate personal transformation for 15 years with individuals and groups as a body-oriented psychotherapist, yoga instructor, facilitator, and life-coach. She has worked extensively with young people and adults in many contexts, including individual and group work at non-profits, universities, and businesses. She is a facilitator of a 10 week on-line seminar for women entitled, Everyday Leadership, and the creator of a holistic support group for mothers.

Her approach utilizes the wisdom of both the mind and the body to uncover and change belief systems that can inhibit making change. She partners with clients to help them uncover blockages and develop practices that support them to take concrete action steps towards manifesting dreams.

She has completed a Master’s Degree in Social Work, Kripalu and Integrative Yoga Therapy certifications, and extensive training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and with Landmark Education. She is on the Board of Directors of Channing Memorial Unitarian Universalist Church and a faclitator for the Awakening the Dreamer organization. She brings compassion, commitment and humor to her work.

Approach with Clients
I begin the process with a free phone consultation to determine whether there is a good fit between coach and client. If we decide to move forward, I usually take 1-4 sessions to complete an assessment and develop an action plan. I work with clients in-person, on the phone and through email correspondence. Sessions may consist of talking, visioning practices, relaxation and focusing practices, and/or writing. Sessions are typically 60 minutes in length. Most agreements are weekly sessions for 3 months -1 year in length, although 1 time Next Steps sessions are also available.

I find inspiration through my work with clients, witnessing them access their innate wisdom and take actions they never thought possible.

What We Balance
I find meaning in life from finding ways to put values into action. I strive to balance my own needs with the needs of my family and to integrate the goals of creating health and well-being in my family with a desire to create health and well-being in the world. Balancing time alone doing physical exercise, reflection, and exploring nature- with time in community creates the energy and commitment to work towards global and local change on various issues including- the election of progressive politicians, environmental well-being, the politics of food, and the education of our children.
