Testimonials

“When my husband was terminally ill and near the end of his life, I found that it was too tender, too difficult, and to achingly 'real' for us to talk about what he needed and wanted. An angel brought Sarah Hitman to our family. Sarah was able to gently discover his fears and wishes. She coached our family through, not only the illness and dying process, but through the memorial service, obituary and follow-up family discussions. My only regret is that I did not bring Sarah into our family process as soon as we learned of his diagnosis.

Thank you, Sarah Hitman!”

“When my seven year old son was diagnosed with a stage III mature B cell lymphoma, Sarah came to visit us in the hospital almost every single week for the entirety of his treatment. Every time she walked in the door of our hospital room, I felt immediate relief. Her very presence is medicine. Sarah is so skilled at what she does: she could play Old Maid with my son, give him healing stones, discern the deep work happening on a soul level, minister to his higher self, make him laugh with goofy jokes, balance his energy, open portals to healing...all while supporting me as the caregiver at the same time. I looked forward to her visits more than anything else during our months of cancer treatment. I knew that when Sarah showed up, I would have ground to stand on. She is a mother in every sense of the word. I felt so seen by her, so cared for, so held. And my son? She was a touchstone for him in the darkest of times. It’s rare to experience a presence that is calm and steady in the midst of a storm.

Sarah is that. She is a lighthouse. She will guide you home.”

“I attended Sarah’s four hour seminar on Death and Dying.
She created a very safe space where she dispensed invaluable
information and used exercises to help us explore & confront feelings
and ideas that we may experience at the time of our own deaths,
but otherwise may not have been in tune with while healthy. I left the
seminar full of hope and with important information and the beginnings of a beautiful death plan.”

“Sarah's workshop covered intimate territory in a most sensitive manner. As an amateur thanatologist for 15+ years, I learned things about myself that were both enlightening and very valuable for my family.”

“I joined Sarah Hitman's End of Life Workshop, hoping for a nudge to get my legal papers in order. After two online sessions, I realized I had gotten much more than that: a path forward that includes processing emotions, rituals and ways of honoring life and grief. It was good to attend these sessions with a small group, getting ideas and realizing this profound bond we all share, mortality. Sarah is a skilled and attentive facilitator, and I look forward to taking another of her workshops. Thanks, Sarah!”
