Therapeutic Approaches Sandra Uses for Online Support

Sandra draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor online care to each person's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and develop practical actions that align with what matters most, which can be useful for coping with loss, illness, or major life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and support, a good fit for building self-esteem and processing grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sandra works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best match their goals, needs, and personal preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people juggling caregiving, health concerns, work, or travel. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to schedule appointments that fit practical life demands while working with licensed professionals and therapists to meet therapeutic goals.
