The Heart of Sara
Sara Magen
Child & Parent Behavior Consultant
I’m Sara Magen, a Child & Parent Behavior Consultant with a psychology background and years of hands-on experience, supporting parents and families across a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges.
My professional journey began in Israel, where I worked in psychology and behavioral support roles across public and educational settings, supporting children on the autism spectrum, with developmental delays, emotional regulation challenges, and complex family dynamics. Over the years, I have worked across diverse spaces, allowing me a deep, holistic understanding of children and the systems surrounding them.
My experience includes:
- Hospitals and child development centers, supporting complex developmental and emotional needs.
- Educational settings, working as a behavior consultant for schools, teachers, and families.
- Program development, creating and leading behavior intervention programs in schools and community organizations.
- Private practice, working directly with children and parents alongside my public-sector roles.
Alongside my work, I use bibliotherapy as a shared emotional and creative language for young children and their parents. Through stories read together, books become meeting places- allowing feelings to surface gently, inviting reflection, imagination, and connection within the family.
Where Psychology Meets Creativity
My work has always lived at the intersection of structure and imagination.
Alongside my psychological background, I studied theatre in Israel and later deepened my creative and writing journey through a master’s experience in Paris.
This combination of psychology and the arts is the foundation of Sara Soul —
a space where emotional understanding, creativity, and human connection meet.
Philosophy:
Children thrive when their inner worlds are understood.
Families grow stronger through connection, presence, and shared meaning. Books, play, and creativity create pathways for emotional expression, reflection, and closeness within the family.
My Approach:
Behavioral & Developmental Expertise: Professional experience working with children, parents, and families across educational, community, and public settings.
Family-Centered Work: Supporting parents and families through emotional awareness and shared understanding.
Bibliotherapy & Storytelling: Stories and books used to open dialogue, reflection, and connection.
Creative Integration: Art, imagination, and storytelling meticulously woven into every process.
Flexible Journeys: Short-term focused support or longer-term family processes.
When heart meets art, families discover new ways to grow, connect, and shine together.
