Biography

Sarah has worked in the health care industry since 1996. Upon completion of her Masters Degree, she completed an internship in Biofeedback therapy. During this internship she saw a variety of patients and symptoms (anxiety, depression, chronic pain, incontinence). Sarah spent time working with a mentor, and another two years completing certification coursework. In addition to her work with Metro Urology Sarah is also working on her licensure in Marriage and Family Therapy.

Sarah’s clinical practice focuses on the cognitive behavioral aspect of therapy. She believes the teaching component is just one piece of a larger puzzle in self-care. The patient’s increased awareness and commitment to practice leads not only to symptom improvement but generalization into everyday life.

Sarah begins every course of therapy with a patient consult. The patient sits down face-to-face with her and discusses program goals, teaching, expectations, and what the patient hopes to achieve from therapy. Sarah works with children, women and men, who are experiencing incontinence, and a variety of voiding dysfunction. In addition she also helps with Interstim programming.
