It is useful for stress, worry, and patterns that keep problems going.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize listening and clear reflection, helping people feel understood while they set goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques may be used to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for strong feelings and relationship strain.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sandra collaborates with each person to weigh goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s life and needs.
