Colleague Testimonials
“I recently had the opportunity to participate in a series of four workshops on positive psychology that Sarah provided to the Austin Community College academic counseling team. Her depth of knowledge on the topics was evident in the sequencing and presentation of the material. She was able to analyze and extract from research the information most relevant to our work and make the concepts come to life with a variety of real world examples, hands-on activities, and small group discussions. Her warm communication style and adept facilitation skills created a collaborative learning environment where I gained a solid understanding of how to incorporate these concepts into both my personal life and my work with students. Sarah will be my go-to person for all future training needs!”

“I feel extremely lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Sarah for several years at the St. Edward's University Health & Counseling Center. Sarah is a gifted clinician as well as an extremely innovative and talented administrator. Sarah's ability to connect with students and coworkers is unparalleled and her leadership was instrumental in the creation and integration of the Health and Counseling Services divisions at St. Edward's University.
Sarah is a joy to collaborate with. Her ability to develop and provide training, supervision, and instruction to students, staff, and faculty is of the highest caliber. In addition, Sarah's thoughtfulness, organization, and insight regarding strategic planning and implementation would greatly benefit any organization...”

“Sarah and I worked together at Ernst & Young Management Consulting. We provided people-focused consulting services and solutions that enabled organisations to achieve business results through engaged and capable employees. Sarah's strong communication and relationship building skills were very apparent. She quickly established a rapport with clients that allowed her to become their trusted adviser. By guiding and facilitating meaningful conversations in a one-on-one or group setting, Sarah created moments of insight and realisation that allowed real change and development to happen within her client’s organisation.
Sarah is also one of the most organised people I know...she has the ability to both see the big picture while being meticulously detail oriented. I'd want Sarah in my emergency lifeboat any day!”
— Jackie Old, Former Head of Organisation Effectiveness and Programme Management at Howden
“I remember the first time I saw Sarah was when she delivered a presentation about wellness to a group of campus partners at a small liberal arts university. I remember thinking, ‘I need to be more like her.’ I was truly blown away by her ease and kind demeanor. After the training, I introduced myself and I told her how much her presentation impressed me.
I have to say that the more I got to know Sarah professionally, the more I wanted to emulate her style, grace, and confidence. She listens to the needs of whoever is in front of her whether it's a student with study skills questions, a colleague in need of feedback, or an administrator looking for solutions. Sarah is the most poised and compassionate person I know, the one you want to talk to because your day will get better. I had the privilege of working with her for several years, and I miss every minute of our professional journey together.”
