Sarah believes life is always changing. It is a kaleidoscope of joy and sorrow, tragedy and contentment. Sometimes our happiness is so great it overflows, while other times the struggle to just make it through the day can be mighty.

Counseling serves as an opportunity for working through change, loss, crisis and heartbreak to help find balance and meaning.
