About Sandra

Sandra Miramontes is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 10 years of clinical experience. She practices in Florida and works with people who bring concerns such as relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and substance-related issues.

Sandra uses straightforward, structured methods to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try new responses. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside attachment-focused and client-centered approaches. Sessions focus on practical steps and skills rather than long explanations.

Her background includes a Master of Science degree in Counseling and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from accredited universities. Before licensure she counseled people from a range of cultures and life situations, which informs how she adapts interventions to fit each person’s circumstances.

In sessions she helps people break down problems into manageable parts. That can mean identifying patterns that keep problems going, testing small behavior changes, and practicing emotion-regulation skills. She also addresses issues like grief, career strain, chronic illness adjustment, and communication problems.

Sandra offers therapy in English and Spanish. The practice uses a subscription payment model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the online options button.

Structured approaches and online sessions

Sandra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot automatic thoughts and test new behaviors in day-to-day life. CBT sessions often include concrete exercises and brief homework to practice between meetings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another approach she uses; ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed actions even when feelings are difficult. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and connection with others.

Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and practical needs and then choose methods to try. Over a few sessions they adjust the plan based on what works and what feels manageable for the client.

This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare, and travel. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, reduce travel time, and let people join sessions from a quieter spot with fewer interruptions. Licensed professionals adapt skills-based work like CBT, ACT, and attachment-focused exercises to suit remote sessions and everyday routines.
