I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia with over 8 years of counseling experience. Throughout my career I’ve worked with individuals across various populations providing mental health counseling, career counseling, mentor-ship, and life coaching services. I have worked in a variety of settings to include residential group homes, outpatient mental health, inpatient mental health, and community based counseling.
I specialize in working with clients coping with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, anger management, trauma, and individuals of the LGBT community who are seeking a safe space. I also have experience working with Veterans and Active Duty Serviceman.
My counseling style is warm and engaging. I believe in treating everyone with dignity and respect. My approach combines cognitive behavioral, Reality Therapy, and solution focused therapy. I believe that the treatment plan and focus should be client centered and client driven. The therapy goals that you set will serve as a road map of our time together and I will assist you with identifying active steps that you can take to actualize your goals. I also check in regularly to ensure that you are making progress towards the goals that we set. I am also very passionate about self-care and I believe that it is a critical part of sound mental wellness.
It takes great courage to seek help and take the first steps towards making a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

I had never been to therapy or successfully sought help from a mental health professional prior to working with Sandtrice, and I'm very grateful to have been taken on as Sandtrice's client. Sandtrice has been very patient and helpful in assisting me to work through a large amount of emotional baggage while offering direct and tangible guidance in handling more immediate issues I am currently facing. Sandtrice also checks in on me regularly between sessions and provides tools and resources to ensure that I'm able to make progress between appointments. I highly recommend Sandtrice as a counselor to anyone experiencing similar mental health struggles.
