Sara Baker, LMLP, LMAC

My experience overall was just a waste of time and money. I went specifically to inquire about EMDR.  It could be a terrible or off day on Sara’s part and hope other people don’t experience what I experienced. My opinions of the interaction with Sara are as follows:  
I felt every question Sara asked me was delivered with annoyance and impatience. Sara did not feel trauma informed to me. Sara did not feel to me to have much experience with anything too complex. Sara claimed to be straightforward person however at the end of the 46 minutes which she charged the full amount, (I feel pro-rating the amount would have been the professional thing to do) Sara provided a card to contact her for another appointment. I was confused because I definitely felt there was zero connection and that was ok with me. I felt Sara knew it it wasn’t a good fit as well. This is where I felt the biggest disappointment, someone claiming to be straightforward doesn’t have the ability to call it like it is. I would have left 5 stars if Sara aligned to her words of actually being straightforward,  if Sara would have stated ,”I don’t think we are a match”.  It is hard for me to feel professional respect for someone that doesn’t align with their words but preaches them.  She felt unauthentic to me and not genuine to me which doesn’t feel safe to be around to me. The room is in a dark basement with no windows and did not feel inviting and definitely felt closed in. Sara was on time and prompt at responding.
