“I first met Sarah at the Fountain Centre when – sadly – my stepson was diagnosed with terminal cancer.  Our lives had been turned upside down and I had no idea how to cope when I felt that I was standing on the outside looking in.  Sarah’s gentle encouragement has taught me to recognise that – no matter how difficult life may be for others – my own needs were important too if I was going to maintain my sanity and well being.  Sarah has taught me coping techniques that have carried me through to making decisions that are right for me; visualization, tapping and breathing techniques are just a few that I have incorporated into my everyday life.  When I can breathe properly I can think straight!  Sarah is always encouraging and supportive and occasionally very funny too.  Laugher really is the best medicine and when she suggested that “we try something ridiculous” I was open minded enough to do so.  The issues that I have dealt with (and am still dealing with) are huge and I know that I am a work in progress.  With Sarah’s support and suggestions I can pick myself on even the worst of days and know that there is something better ahead.”
