Testimonials

 

“Sara changed our lives. Our child has been working with her for the last 18 months. Sara’s ability to connect with our child is unlike any other. We have seen top psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists prior to meeting with Sara. The progress we have seen in the past 18 months with Sara has been infinitely more impactful than any other service provider.”

 

“Prior to finding Soul Skills, my husband and I were feeling hopeless. After receiving a life threatening diagnosis for our child in addition to weeks on end in the hospital, we barely recognized our daughter. Our spunky, playful toddler forgot how to be a kid. Her developmental regression was devastating. The Specialists at Soul Skills worked their magic. Their professionalism, compassion and dedication was evident from the first session. Today, our child has well surpassed any goals we set forth. She is running, jumping, playing, talking and laughing...gifts we never thought we would see that our Specialists made possible.”

 

“The entire team at Soul Skills responded to a traumatic accident to provide bereavement support. Over the past six months they have built such strong therapeutic bonds with each child in our family, ranging from 3 to 17. They helped them understand and cope with an unimaginable loss. The Specialists brought an unparalleled level of hope and empathy to our entire family during our most vulnerable moments. They collaborated closely with our child’s teachers to rebuild trust and safety. As parents who are also grieving a major loss, Sara and Kat went above and beyond to coach us through different ways to engage in self care and model positive coping strategies for our children. We are blown away with how far each of the children have come. We owe our children’s resiliency and progress to the skillset and heart that each of those specialists exemplify in every therapeutic interaction.”

 

“Pet therapy with Bella has brought our daughter an indescribable amount of joy and motivation. Bella and Sara work weekly with my teenager to build her confidence and better manage her anxiety. It is incredible to see the bond that she has formed not only with Sara, but also with her new best friend, Bella. Bella and Sara are both patient, empathetic and flexible in their therapeutic approach. Sara’s creativity in utilizing animal assisted therapy virtually and in person has been truly inspiring to witness. Sara and Bella teach my teen strategies to regulate her breathing, minimize intrusive thoughts and build her self esteem. We are in awe of the progress they have made together and forever grateful to Soul Skills.”
