Hello, I'm Sandra Workman, MS, LPC, NCC, CMHC. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or mood disorders, that disrupt daily functioning, relationships, work, and financial stability. Using evidenced -based approaches including CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I help clients build practical skills, reduce stress, and create clear, achievable steps toward recovery. I can help you regain control.

I work with smart, capable people who spend much of their time handling responsibilities, solving problems, and showing up for others - but struggle to say no, let go of perfectionism, or give themselves permission to slow down and just relax for a bit. I offer a thoughtful space to get curious about the expectations you place on yourself, why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable, and why saying no or disappointing others can leave you feeling anxious and guilt-ridden ~even when you know you want to. Together, we'll explore the patterns behind the challenges and find ways to make life feel a little easier and more sustainable.

In working with younger children, I have had the most success using telehealth when parents are present to monitor, arrange a predictable environment, and assist with any technical issues. In working with younger children, the parents’ role is vital.

Recommended parenting techniques are largely based on the Conscious Discipline model which encourages mindful parenting. With younger children, the parents’ cooperation is imperative to reach desired behavioral goals. I also draw from the approaches outlined in Working with Challenging Youth by Brent Richardson, Ed.D.

I work with adults and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, personality disorders, emotional dysregulation, grief, relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, and challenges related to sexual health and wellness. A significant focus of my work involves intimacy, sexuality, and relationship dynamics. I provide sex-positive, LGBTQ+ affirming, kink-aware, and consensual non-monogamy-affirming care. Whether you are exploring sexual identity, navigating desire discrepancies, addressing sexual shame, rebuilding intimacy, healing from sexual trauma, or working through challenges associated with polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, or BDSM dynamics, my goal is to provide a supportive space where difficult or sensitive conversations can occur openly and without fear of judgment. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed interventions.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for ten years now. You will always know yourself better than I can or will. From a philosophical and theoretical standpoint. I am overwhelming more of an attachment theorist, and have been known to use existentialism from time to time to help make sense of something. I guess the question that remains though is; can a butterfly flap it's wings in Brazil and cause a tornado in Kentucky, or are we all simply just products of our childhood and mirrors of our parents traumas? The duality of life. Attachment Theory vs. Chaos Theory. Both have value. I digress. My goal is to provide a petridish in which you can explore your self. Safe. Contained. Yet completely in your control. The paradox being, you likely already have what you need. I'll sit with you while you find it. I can give you my clinical opinion, or diagnosis, and recommendations along the way as well if you'd like that. I can just sit and listen. I can play devils advocate. My job is to listen, empower, observe, and provide feedback when requested.
