Sarah is the best! She is super responsive, flexible, always on time, and truly understands what I'm trying to achieve in therapy. She has a plethora of resources to share in the forms of articles and worksheets. She is also a genuinely warm and kind person. I recommend her to anyone!

A phenomenal listener. Very level headed and helpful.

Sarah is a talented professional that I trust with all of my life experiences. She has opened my eyes and heart to so much over my two year tenure with her and I love our weekly discussions. I wouldn't be the person I am today without her help and guidance through all walks of life. I'm so grateful for her knowledge, resources, kindness, understanding, and her amazing personality that makes her so easy to open up to!

I was adrift when I lost my previous therapist. She left the agency to work in the schools. I had another therapist for a year, and I went backwards. Since Better Help and Sarah I've again started moving in the right direction, and quite rapidly at that!
