Hi, I’m Sandra. I’m a Licensed Social Worker and mental health clinician with over 10 years of experience supporting adults as they navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic stress, and co-occurring concerns. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care, I help clients build practical coping skills, increase emotional awareness, and strengthen resilience.
My ideal client is an adult who feels overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck despite continuing to show up in their daily life. They may be managing anxiety, depression, trauma, or chronic stress. They are seeking a therapist who can provide a calm, steady presence, explain the therapeutic process clearly, and offer practical tools they can use.
I strive to create a safe, supportive, and collaborative space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you while working toward meaningful, lasting wellness and recovery.
