Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience providing therapy services to those suffering from depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, trauma and co-occuring disorders. My philosophy is that there are no mistakes in life, they are simply lessons to learn and grow from. I am a firm believer that you can find your strength when you overcome challenges.

My philosophy is that there are no mistakes in life, they are simply lessons to learn and grow from.

First session

In our first session together after brief introductions I will gather pertinent history and information regarding the challenges you are facing to help develop a treatment plan for future sessions.

Strengths

I believe my greatest strengths is my ability to meet my consumers where they are at with empathy and no judgement.

Ideal clients

As an empowerment therapist I have years of experience working with children and adults. However at this time my focus is on teenagers and adults. I welcome all cultures, backgrounds, sexual orientations and religions. I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you will feel safe to disclose and process through issues and challenges that may be weighing you down.

Treatment methods

Eclectic

I develop the treatment used to meet the unique needs of each person.

I have the utmost respect for Sandy. I have always found her to be remarkably grounded, and her cultured depth of life experience makes her insights feel both authentic and relatable. In my experience, she has helped me navigate challenges with practical, real-world solutions and conversations. I find her guidance to be professional, sincere, and deeply human. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

She is by far the best!!! I can write a whole book on how much she has helped me and supported me through my ups and downs. Her guidance is the best! I can continue writing about how much I appreciate her! But not enough words in the dictionary!
