Sandra Quaife
Whatever your reasons are for coming to this place, I hope that we can make a connection that will be helpful for you. I am Sandy Quaife, a licensed therapist, and some of my clients have told me that I am different from other therapists they have met. I am not a conventional person and people who have not felt that they were able to get help from some of the more conventional support systems have liked my approach to counseling. I have a lot of experience working with people who are going through major life transitions such as young people moving into "adulting", individuals recreating their life after divorce or loss, and those looking for what they want to do with the rest of their life after careers and/or children are gone. I most often use techniques from cognitive therapy, DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), developmental psychology, and recovery perspectives.
