These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sarah Turnpaugh. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Sarah is the best counselor that we have ever had the chance to work with

I am amazed at how well my daughter is doing with Sarah. I have never been so happy with a therapist. I am glad they matched my daughter with Sarah. She’s honestly too good at what she does. She listens, understands, and is extremely flexible when our schedules don’t meet. Definitely recommend her 10/10.

Sarah is very down to earth and approachable. Starting therapy can be very intimidating, but she makes it quite painless. She makes it easy to open up and gives a comforting environment to do so. Sarah is an awesome therapist that helps you apply strategies to real world situations. It took me several hours to find the right therapist, but I feel that I've found gold, she's helped me with so much in such a short period of time. Thank you!

She’s literally an angel. I was hesitant to start therapy again because I knew I’d have to re share old trauma/experiences, but she made it so easy. So incredibly kind, intelligent, and well-spoken. Highly recommend her!
