In session she looks for patterns that keep problems going and works on small, doable changes. She often combines strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to address thoughts and values. Attachment-Based and client-centered ideas guide how she builds trust and listens to what matters most.

Sandra has 13 years of experience working with overlapping issues, including chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image, and relationship-related concerns like abandonment and communication problems. She is based in Texas and brings that experience to each client’s situation.

Her approach begins with clear goal-setting and an action plan that adapts over time. Sessions focus on skills people can use between visits, from managing difficult feelings to making choices that reflect personal values. The emphasis is on practical, step-by-step progress rather than quick fixes.

People who choose Sandra can expect a therapist who listens closely, offers straightforward tools, and helps design a plan that fits their life. She encourages collaboration and respects the pace each person needs to heal and change.

Online therapy approaches and what they do

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can be useful for depression, grief, and managing the urges or cravings that come with addiction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It often helps with changing mood, reducing rumination, and managing anxiety-driven habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with each client to pick methods that match goals and preferences. That may mean combining techniques and adjusting plans as progress is made.

Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work, caregiving, or medical schedules because travel time is removed and appointments can be scheduled around other obligations. If you plan to try online therapy, confirm which session formats are available before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online work often focuses on the same skills as in-person care and can include brief check-ins, skill practice, and planning between sessions to keep momentum going.
