My name is Sandra Remy and I consider myself a professional helper. It is in my nature to help others and what allows me to do this is my ability to empathize with others. For the past sixteen years, I have been very humbled to serve countless children, adolescents, adults, and families as a licensed social worker (LMSW). You might be overwhelmed by the various stressors in your life. These stressors might be related to your career/work life, relationships, body image/weight, parenting, unresolved childhood experiences, major life transition(s), etc.

I believe it is my duty to form a robust partnership with you that is trustworthy, heartfelt and authentic. Whether this is your first time in therapy, or an opportunity to re-start the process of guided introspection, starting a new relationship can be scary. I strive to facilitate a safe environment that encourages curiosity, and builds empathy for yourself and others, with joy and laughter along the way. Together we can reach new heights while cultivating effective therapeutic tools that can enhance your life skills, and tackle the areas of your life that are hindered by obstacles that are holding you back.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and systemic. I believe in meeting you where you are so we can get to where you need to be. I am trained as an LMFT, and I have been practicing for the last 4 years. I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and have experienced a myriad of presenting problems. I am here to challenge you to grow while holding your hand through the scary parts. I utilize an eclectic approach because I believe that there is no "one size fits all" approach when it comes to therapy. I believe that all clients should feel comfortable knowing that their therapist is working to fit their needs.

Any therapy begins with a surface challenge causing life discomfort, where clients seek to "fix," "change," "get rid of," or "not feel/experience" issues like anger, relationship intimacy, anxiety, or decision-making difficulties. As trust builds in the therapeutic relationship, we delve deeper into untangling complex situations, considering cultural background and unique perspectives. Therapy facilitates changes on the level of values, life perspectives, self-reliance, and self-worth. Change takes time; just as it took years to form old habits, adopting new approaches is a gradual process.

At times it may seem as if we're at odds with our mind. The thoughts and feelings we experience seem overwhelming. We can convince ourselves we're undeserving of contentment, love, happiness, success, acceptance, etc. Where does that come from and why is it so easy to believe? For those of us in the LGBTQIA+ community, there are added layers we need to work through, making it difficult for us to thrive. Therapy can play a meaningful role by providing a space to work through the layers, confront our hurtful thoughts and feelings, unburden ourselves of the past, and truly learn to thrive.

Therapy is about self-exploration and growth, whether you want to improve your communication with others, learn how to cope with stress or any other mental injury that's weighing you down. Many times, feeling heard and being able to reflect can give you the space you need to make decisions about your life. You have to start where you are.

I wouldn't say I have an ideal client because I would never imply that any client is less than ideal. Still, at this point I'm only offering therapy online and can only accept those clients who are moderately impacted by their mental health situation (moderately depressed, moderately anxious, etc).
