"Sophia Saad is not only an extremely skilled and talented art therapist but she is someone you want working with your son/daughter/school/program, etc. She is compassionate, detail-oriented, thoughtful, and extremely hardworking. As the Educational Specialist at Weill Cornell Medicine in the Hearing and Speech Department, a big part of our "family" is putting on inclusive events for the community. Sophia led flawlessly a group of 25+ elementary school kids with hearing loss in a paint party they'll always remember. She scaffolded this experience for them from start to finish and made lasting impressions on both the participants and their parents. She helped them discover their own unique features through portrait painting and she helped connect those with similarities in an authentic and meaningful way. We recommend Sophia wholeheartedly and as an institution in New York City, we are also proud to have her as a visiting therapist."
