shared moments
Sara has been instrumental in my life in the past few months. I began coming to see Sara due to relational patterns, general anxiety, and adjustment issues I was experiencing, but our work together has expanded to way more topics than just these. Sara has been nothing but warm, kind, and genuinely caring during our time together so far. She has a way of meeting me where I am at while also empowering me to grow and learn more about myself. As an LGBTQ+ person, I knew I wanted to find a therapist who was affirming and supportive of my identities. Sara not only values and respects my unique identities, but actively integrates them into our work together. Sara and I have only been working together for a few months and I am already seeing so many positive changes in my personal life, ranging from knowing myself better to feeling like I have more capability to advocate for myself and my needs. Sara utilizes her knowledge to help me understand myself and my situation better. I have found so much comfort and strength in Sara and I am looking forward to continuing our work together!

What I love about working with Sara Cate is the awareness it has brought to my body's physical sensations and the understanding of how those reactions are connected to my thoughts and emotions. Now when I need to make a decision or discover my true feelings, I find that I have a better grasp on what's important by allowing my physical sensations the judgement-free space they need. It feels very freeing and expansive to let go of guilt and shame and notice things that make me feel fulfilled in my body.

Sara Moser is a powerful yoga teacher and person. I took a class with her, with very little yoga experience and low expectations. I quickly became a regular in her class. My physical practice grew quickly and my mental practice/perspective started to shift.
I started to slow down, be more present, and become more aware of myself and my surroundings. After just a few months of regular practice, I was ready to commit to my own teacher training experience. I booked a one month immersion in Bali, Indonesia. None of which would have been possible without Sara’s steady guidance, support, and encouragement.
She helped me to slow down, set goals, and make steady progress towards becoming something more than I ever was or ever had aspirations to be. Understanding and working with my breathing allowed me to slowly rid myself of my anxieties. Sara is truly a healer and a teacher. Truly a guide for this once lost soul.

Sara has been a huge inspiration in my life. I began practicing yoga a little over 5 years ago when I walked into Sara’s class and now I am going through my 200-hour yoga training!
Sara has a way of connecting with her students on more than an instructor to student level which is extremely important to me. There are plenty of great yoga teachers, but very few that help you find your safe space reinforcing positive energy. When I walk into her class I know I am going to challenge myself mentally and physically.
These are qualities I adore in any teacher and Sara has a true gift for bringing out the best in people. I miss Sara’s energy and smile; I have grown so much in the past 5 years and I have her to thank for helping me continue my journey.
