My name is Sarah and I support and coach clients on the cognitive and autism spectrum. Diagnoses I have worked with are OCD, DD, Schizophrenia, Down Syndrome, Autism and ADD. All support I provide is done in the philosophy of person-centered care. Every individual I work with is different and how we spend our time together is based on their personalities, needs and goals. But none of that is possible without creating a solid foundation of safety and trust in our working relationship. Some highlights in my career have been, getting multiple clients into art shows, gently supporting one client to find his way to sobriety, and a nomination for a DSP award through MOHR in 2020. I value helping clients with emotional regulation, healthy lifestyle and mindset, finding and engaging with safe community and building skills of self-advocacy. All communications I have with clients and legal guardians are transparent and inclusive.
