I am licensed in Texas with 8 years of professional work experience. I have worked as a high school counselor for the past 9 years. Through my years working as a high school counselor I have worked with not only students, but family members, and staff as well. I have had the ability to help clients in areas such as anxiety, depression, self harm, trauma, eating disorders, self esteem issues, relationship issues, and career choices. Being a school counselor has given me the opportunity to work with a diverse group of counseling areas, and clients.
My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, existential, and interpersonal therapy. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Sandra is exceptional. She listens and truly understands what concerns you express and find ways to guide you that are very easy to understand and accomplish. Couldn't recommend more. I have been with quite a number of therapists and none have understood me the way she does.

Sandra is such a great listener. She is able to point out a few words and elaborate on what I am feeling. She suggests multiple ways to see things and is empathetic. I really enjoy our conversations. I am able to be emotional and even cry without feeling like I'm a burden. She also shares some of her life experiences that help me see things differently.
