Saria is a one of Qualia’s clinicians who prides herself on synthesizing evidence-based therapies with holistic principles. She approaches her clinical practice in a way that draws upon individual’s inherent strengths, wisdom and lived experiences. 

Since 1993 her Social Work experiences have been rooted in the field of mental health wherein she has served a broad spectrum of ages, issues and capacities. Recognized as a ‘high energy’ person, Saria strives to embody the values of kindness, inclusivity and integrity and models this in the Qualia community with positivity and solution focused mentality. 

As a therapist she demonstrates this in her uniquely genuine, compassionate and ‘colourful’ connections with others and also has the ability to respectfully challenge her clients. She enjoys many aspects of life and regards the times she can genuinely connect with others as one of life’s greatest gifts. 

She is truly honoured to be regarded by those she serves in such a favourable light and aspires to continue to help lessen the suffering of others.
