  • “Working at Live Better Counseling as a Psychotherapist has been a rewarding experience for me. As I was navigating my first steps as a therapist in private practice, I had Sahar’s guidance throughout. I felt encouraged to challenge myself in order to be able to provide the best care for my clients. Being a part of a wonderful team that is supportive and always resourceful has been invaluable for me as I was learning and growing in my profession.”

  • “Many thanks for leading our Professional Development session for our educators. We believe the participants really benefitted from the time together. Having a chance to pause and reflect on their life, share safely with the group and gain some strategies to help nurture wellness and balance in their professional lives was clearly time well spent. ​We appreciate your thoughtful leadership and the excellence you provided. I hope we will have the opportunity to partner again.”
