Dr Clark is an amazing woman. She is very kind, gentle, and understanding. I love how she engages each time, it feels like Im speaking with an old friend. She is so wise and caring, and shares her knowledge and experience with me in a way that feels so connected and supportive. I’m so thankful to have found her!

I’ve had only 3 sessions with Sandra so far and each one has been incredibly impactful. She’s a great listener and asks questions to get to the heart of the matter and then gives great advice. Her words often touch my heart and make me feel more understood and things feel more clear after our sessions.

More about Sandra

  • 29 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I've earned a Doctorate in Healthcare Administration. Also, I am a Licensed Professional Counseling Supervisor. I have over twenty-seven years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with a range of concerns. I have worked approximately ten years as a Psychologist I/Qualified Mental Health Professional for a local state hospital where individuals receiving services received inpatient treatment from active delusions, paranoid ideations, schizophrenia, and a range of mood disorders. As a Program Director for an outpatient clinic for seven years there were opportunities to work with adolescent and children with diagnosis such as disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, as well as working with adults facing problems with alcohol and drug usage, unmanaged anger, generalized anxiety, and clinical depression. Other years in my career allowed me to provide a service to children and their families both at a school level and local social service agency.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Miss Sandra was a breath of fresh air. I was very reluctant to do therapy due to childhood trauma experience with therapy. Miss Sandra was a God send in a crucial time. She helped me navigate some major transitions and gave me confidence in myself, while normalizing the difficulties of my circumstances. The tools she provided helped shape strong positive outcomes. I will be forever grateful for the impact Miss Sandra had on me and ultimately my family.

After a month of therapy sessions with her I can say that it’s therapeutic to have someone who looks like me to talk to about my family history issues, begin understood & treated without judgment. A trusted outlet, I wanted to stop compartmentalizing, & intellectualizing my emotions & emotionally dumping on the friends closest to me. I want to spend time enjoying creating moments & not sharing trauma. That’s why I joined. Knowing once a week I have time dedicated meaningfully release my current worries, stresses, and even past instances back to childhood is cathartic. Which is slowly, but surely building me to the new healed version of myself. Thank you. ❤️
