Sarah Shapiro

Sarah Shapiro-Barnard, RYT, LCSW, is a popular workshop leader, psychotherapist and an author. Over her 20 year career, she has helped hundreds of people gain insight into the connection between physical illness, emotions and Spiritual life lessons. She has a wealth of professional experience including over 12 years in private practice in New York City, work as a clinical consultant on Wall Street for Fortune 500 companies, and work as a psychotherapist at an addictions treatment Center in New York City.

She is a popular workshop leader and she has taught at many renowned venues such as the New York Open Center, Om Yoga and the Integral Yoga Institute in New York. Sarah teaches perennial philosophy: connecting the river of Truth that flows beneath all spiritual paths. Her book "Divine Intervention: Spiritual Teachings for the New Millennium" (2001), connects modern psychology and metaphysical principles. Sarah is a channel for Higher Wisdom. She was guided to create the Divine Intervention Audio Series to help people all over the world gain access to this Wisdom.

At a very young age, Sarah was "guided" to become a psychotherapist so that she could teach the "architecture of the psyche" to help people to stay grounded in their quest for healing and Spiritual awakening. She is particularly drawn to the work of Carl Jung who clearly asserts that we cannot "skip" the pain of our past and simply states: "The only way out is through" Carl Jung.

Sarah's workshops and audio teachings weave together the practical applications of yoga philosophy, Jungian Archetypal Psychology and modern Psychology into daily life. The work is the culmination of 20 + years of experience as a psychotherapist, healer and a yoga teacher. She is down to earth, practical and she is known to have a good sense of humor.

Sarah wishes to assist you on your journey to emotional, physical and spiritual wellness.
