Sadie Quintanilla, LPCC
About me
Welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Sadie Quintanilla. I’m a Licenced Professional Clinical Counselor. I have studied many types of movement, bodywork, and nutrition, and as a therapist I was drawn to work with at-risk Adolescents and young adults. My passion is helping the youth, a population that is usually underserved, to raise their self esteem and believe in themselves and the choices they are able to make.
My therapeutic background is based on Reality Therapy. I believe that everyone has the ability to change, and choice can be an empowering force. I’ve also received training in Seven Challenges, a substance abuse therapeutic curriculum for adolescents. I am not certified to use the curriculum currently, however, I do use the therapy techniques. Recently, I was trained in EMDR and have been enjoying my new perspective on the brain and how it can heal itself. I’ve also had excessive training in Crisis Assessment and due to my experience I have become a specialist in suicide prevention. Let’s just say it’s hard to shock me. I’m very comfortable talking about everything secretly going through the mind.
If you are looking for support in making some changes in how you are feeling. I would be glad to help.

Sadie has been such a huge help these past few months. I look forward to her insights every week, and I really feel like I’ve grown a lot through our sessions. I never feel rushed during our sessions, and Sadie always takes the time to answer my questions between our appointments. Highly recommend.
