I love her. She’s full of love for her. She makes me laugh all the time when I feel like I miss his session with my counselor at tend to get a little irritated and after I talk to her, I feel so release so free so happy I’ll be so calm collective Rejoice makes me feel very open after my sessions and feedback that she returns is excellent feedback stuff that I’d be needing to hear at 10 to not get angry when her feedback is given

She was very helpful. Easy to talk and get along with!

Tory W • November 12, 2018

She really listens and makes you feel safe & heard. Dr. Makin really explains everything, even when it comes to the forms you have to sign; she is very thorough. I look forward to meeting with her again and continuing treatment.

Jordan W • August 30, 2018

Every minute per session has been a progressive step forward in my experience with Sara. Her holistic approach erects no diagnostic walls of confinement, rather gnostic guardrails alongside the path to well being. Sara has an intrinsic ability to both relate and channel. The square footage of her office is paradoxical when considering the world of open space she provides for a positive and healing episode.

Maurice W • August 30, 2018

She is very nice and easy to talk to. She is very knowledgeable; and it was a great experience!

Steve N • August 29, 2018

Sara is amazing! I've worked with many healers over many years, and she's at the top of the list. Wonderful changes in one visit!

Sven H • August 24, 2018

Sara is great

Paige G • August 22, 2018

Sara is a phenomenal counselor. She made me feel comfortable and safe to answer the questions she asked during our session. In fact I felt so safe that I was able to share a few examples to base some of my answers on. Sara has a very compassionate heart and she genuinely shows concern and empathy for her patients. I would encourage friends and family who feel they may benefit from meeting with a counselor, to contact Sara. Thank you for your professionalism, compassion, and empathy.

Jeffrey M • August 19, 2018
