I have only had a few sessions with Sandra so far but she has done a phenomenal job of balancing the "challenge" that I need to grow with the support that I need to succeed, and she has already started giving me tools that I can use in the day-to-day struggles I have and has encouraged me to practice them.

More about Sandra
- 29 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
It is an honor and privilege to have the opportunity to help clients in the great state of Indiana. I practice from an individualized approach to meet the unique needs of each person, couple and family that I work with and believe psychotherapy is a way of reclaiming our painful experiences and accepting them without allowing them to define us. When working with clients I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, positive, respectful, and safe for everyone. I know that you are the expert of your life experiences and have many strengths that you may not be conscious of that together we will identify and develop in order to overcome any obstacles.
I have been practicing as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 29 years, and I received my MSW from the University of Pennsylvania and did a post-graduate certification program in marital, family and sex therapy from the Penn Council for Relationships. I have worked for Better Help for almost 3 years. I utilize a combination of theoretical approaches that I believe will help you to achieve your treatment goals and take an intersystems' approach to a couple's and family dynamics. I collaborate with the individual, couple and family to meet you where you are and set goals for where you would like to be.
For the past 16 years, I have been working full-time with Veterans, Active Duty Service Personnel, and their families, helping them to regain their purpose in life and create a new mission for themselves, as military duty and combat changes people. I, also, enjoy working with caregivers and persons with disabilities, as I am the proud mother of a sons with special needs. I work with individuals, couples and families with current mental health issues that are inhibiting them from living a fulfilled life.
It takes the courage and strength to ask for help. If you are ready to do the introspective work that it takes to start feeling better, have healthier relationships, and a more fulfilling sex life with your significant other(s), I am here to support and empower you through this journey. I look forward to meeting and working with you soon!

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.

She is such a good listener, you can tell she has a very caring heart. She works with your schedule. She gives tangible activities to address the things you’re trying better about yourself, and she really pushes you to meet your goals, but in a gentle way. She checks to make sure you’re making progress too and helps when you’re stuck.
Cannot praise her highly enough. She really helped me address some trauma and past experiences that I didn’t realize were still affecting me. She has a kind but firm approach that worked well for me. She pushes when it’s necessary and encourages when it’s necessary. I feel blessed to have found her.
Easy to talk to
Sandra has been such a help to me in a way previous therapists have not. Her approach to trauma and her kind but direct manner has been so beneficial. She is personable and professional.
Sandra is amazing; She’s perceptive, detail oriented, consistent, professional, empathetic, and far more. I would definitely recommend her and have done so to others.
