Janet E. Sahafi – in Thomastown was born in rural Oklahoma, Janet has lived in a wide variety of interesting places in America, and would never have predicted she would end up in Ireland. Through her own life struggles and subsequent therapy she was introduced to psychodrama. She took to it immediately. Returning to school after her divorce, she received a Masters Degree in Literature and Humanistic Education. Eager to learn more and more about people handling challenges in their life she trained as a psychotherapist and an addictions counsellor. ‘Roots’ have always fascinated her, possibly because of the unsettledness of her own life. The stories of her grandparents experiences in the pioneering times of the Wild West fed her imagination as a child.
