In our participant’s words…

When I received a diagnosis, my boss let me know the Osara program was available to me through work at no cost. I felt this would help me navigate the very unexpected health issue. 

Osara gave me some good practical advice, and information links to help me with my research as I navigated my way through this journey. I was blessed to be assigned to Linda as my coach, she is amazingly helpful and compassionate. I bombarded her with many questions and a deluge of feelings. Nothing was too much for her, and she went out of her way to tailor the information to suit my situation, including how I best understand and respond to things.

It definitely helped me with my intended strong advocacy for navigating this journey how I wanted to, emotionally and in the health settings with other health professionals. Linda felt like a true friend, and I will always value the care and dedication she gave me that felt above and beyond.

I highly recommend the Osara program, for the resources and support it gave me. I felt quite strong in my ability to move forward throughout and at the end of the program.
