Sara Friend

Sara Friend is a Registered Nurse with 10 years experience specializing in mental health. She is currently working on a bachelor’s degree in nursing. For her final project, she felt led to implement something that would not just complete an assignment, but make an impact for others.

Mental health has always been her passion. She know what it is like to struggle with a significant amount of depression and anxiety. She has found purpose in inspiring and encouraging others to experience the grace of God and to find the strength to fight for their mental health so that they can fully experience life, not just survive it.

Sara's hope is that this support group will give those who don’t feel comfortable talking about their struggles a safe place to speak openly while we support and encourage one another. Depression likes to tell us that we are fighting alone when we’re not. Having the support of others can help pave a path for healing.
