My name is Sandra Holt and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in McMinnville, Tennessee and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults and specialize in depression, anxiety, stress and trauma using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR to help my clients make progress and start feeling better.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

What you can expect from our first session together is for us to spend the majority of our time talking about how you’ve been feeling recently, and me asking questions to better understand some of why you may be feeling that way. The first session is about building an initial connection and helping me get a sense of where we should go from there. Each individual is different, and I like to listen before assuming I know what will work best for you moving forward.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I decided to become a therapist because I have always wanted to help people. I have always been drawn to helping people find their inner strength during difficult times. I enjoy seeing individuals become the best versions of themselves.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I have found that my style and approach is a good fit for teens and adults who may be dealing with the challenges of life transitions and social pressures. This is often takes the form of anxiety, depression, and stress. I work to help my clients navigate these transition periods and to build social skills to allow them to feel better about themselves and develop a more positive outlook on life.
