Sarah completed her Master of Social Work degree at Wilfrid Laurier University, and is a
Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.

 

She has completed the Advanced level training for Somatic Experiencing, a body-oriented model which aims to resolve symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma that accumulate in our bodies. 
 

In her clinical training and employment, she has worked with individuals at the
London Health Sciences Centre, Parkwood Institute’s Regional Mental Health Care,

first responders and veterans at Homewood Health's Program for Traumatic Stress Recovery (PTSR),

as well as a counselling agency and private practice. 

​

Her first career was in journalism, and this allows Sarah to have a unique understanding

of how exposure to traumatic events and human suffering can impact reporters,

videographers, editors, and others who work in the field.

Outside of work, Sarah loves to be active, and to spend time with family and friends. At present
she enjoys lifting weights, skiing, and has competed in sports such as powerlifting,
and long distance triathlons, including Ironman Wisconsin. 

​

She is currently part of the Toronto Mental Performance Consultation Group, is a member of the Association for Applied Sport Psychology, and loves to work

with athletes and other performers to strengthen their mental skills.

​

In addition, Sarah also has a Master of Divinity degree from Huron University College at Western University, and training in spiritual care. This provides a unique opportunity to bring spirituality into therapy sessions for clients who identify that this type of approach would be helpful.
