Just the kind of therapist I needed. To show me insight or a perspective I may be missing on my own. Guides me towards open and different thinking. I personally needed someone who isn't too soft and agrees with everything I say, I needed someone who shows me a different way of thinking and helps me identify and acknowledge my own strengths and flaws too and work on the flaws

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.

Sandra is Very Considerate and thoughtful with Her Questions and Listening Skills , Greatly Appreciate Her

Reviewed April 2024

I was paired with Sandra during a very volatile time in my career. I don’t think I could have been more appropriately matched. I appreciate someone who helps you understand what you need to do to help yourself without just telling you. There’s been many instances when I’ve talked in circles and she’s helped me break that loop with a solution. She’s helped me understand what my priorities are and how to place those things first instead of being ran over by my career. I genuinely look forward to our meetings and an always excited to update her on my goals and improvements. 10/10 Sandra.

So far I have loved her! She listens and is real down to earth. She makes me feel validated and in the same way she helps me see my reactions are sometimes not the best way to handle things so she helps redirect me. We were matched very well!
