Sandra Peña
Hello! I am Sandra. As a licensed marriage and family therapist I have over 8 years of experience working in a community mental health setting with primarily adults, couples, and adolescents. My approach is to meet you where you are at by providing a safe place for you to feel validated and seen. I chose to be in the mental health profession because I want people to know that they are not alone. Everyone has the right to communicate and feel what they want to feel. My passion is to help you find your balance and your self-worth, so you can live the life you deserve and desire. It is an honor and privilege to join you on your own journey of improving your well being.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
While we work together, I will provide a safe space for you to be vulnerable and communicate your needs. My job is to be supportive and empathetic during this time of healing. My philosophy in life is we need to have an overall balance of mental, emotional, and physical wellness. My Moto is to Be Still!
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with clients that together, we will identify challenges and goals - where you want your life to be a month, six months, a year from now. Then, we'll identify options and strategies you can use to get there.
