Sara C. McCollum, CHTP Biography:
Sara Combs-McCollum, AAS, RDH, CHTP is a native and lifelong resident of Rockingham County, Reidsville, NC. She graduated from Guilford Technical Community College and received licensure as a Registered Dental Hygienist in 1993. Although always intrigued by concepts that underlie energetic healing, she had no framework within which to articulate her interest. It took seeing an energy worker in a NICU working on premature neonates in 2010 to truly cause the spark to set fire. After going on to complete a two-year minimum, five-level standardized curriculum program with Healing Touch of the Carolinas under the tutelage of Deborah Larrimore, RN, LMBT, CHTP/I, Sara received her Healing Touch Practitioner Certification in March, 2015. She is affiliated with Healing Touch International/Healing Beyond Borders, was on staff at Wake Forest Baptist Integrative Medicine Clinic, and operates as an independent Healing Touch practitioner bringing the benefits of Healing Touch to patients, friends, relatives, and anyone else she can quite literally get her hands on.
