Sarah believes in treating the whole body. Our social, emotional, physical, and psychological experiences are all important factors in recovery and growth. Everyone deserves to be seen as a whole person to heal. Sarah has a passion for working with people with gender identity issues, and she understands first-hand how difficult it can be for them to navigate the healthcare system. Her previous role at Duke Gender Health gave her additional insight into the challenges of navigating a health system and the barriers that must be overcome.
Sarah is originally from northern New Jersey. Physical Therapy is her second career, after working nearly 9 years in drug discovery and chemical development. Sarah’s move from the lab to the clinic was driven by a desire to work with people and help improve their lives.
Outside of the clinic, Sarah enjoys hiking, beaches, photography, astronomy, science and the natural world. Recently Sarah has been exploring pottery and sketching.
