“This training was fantastic. English is not my first language, and I often struggle in training environments. Sara spoke clearly and explained the concepts in a way I could understand.”

Sara was an excellent facilitator for the Motivational Interviewing training for my corporate team. I am the CPO of a software company, and my HR teams have been experiencing burnout over the past few years due to the challenges in our employee population’s mental health. I sought out training and tools to help my HR teams avoid taking too much home, and MI, along with Sara, was precisely what we needed. Sara created a custom training program for us that addressed the needs of my team. Her style is empathetic, warm, and insightful, and the skills we gained were practical and immediately applicable. I highly recommend Sara for any MI facilitation and coaching!

As we planned the training, Sara was inquisitive and responsive; this careful preparation resulted in applying her expertise customized to our needs. The content, interactive activities, and facilitation style were informative, fun, and connective. Our individual and collective strengths were lifted up as we learned new skills and novel ways of using existing skills. Staff have shared that they now feel more equipped to approach student interactions with a balance of care and boundaries and to empower the students they work with around growth and change.

I’ve probably been to 10 Motivational Interviewing trainings over the years, and this was far and away the best–concise, applicable, and fun!
