Sarah  Manaher received her social work training at Washington University in St. Louis.   She started her career working with families experiencing homelessness, and found strength in their resiliency and the power of the human spirit.  It was this experience that led her to receive extensive training in the relational treatment of trauma. 

Sarah practices relational, trauma informed, Psychotherapy, with the relationship between the client and therapist being the soul of the healing process.  Her professional experience has  granted her the opportunity to work with people experiencing varying challenges and at various stages of life.  One of her greatest strengths is her ability to recognize the humanity in all people and to work from a non-judgmental, mutually respecting stance that recognizes the expertise and strength in everyone when they walk through the door.
