About Sandra

Sandra Crisp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage depression, grief, addictions, and trauma. She works with clients who face overlapping issues, where more than one concern shows up at once. Sandra focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions to feel steadier day to day.

Her approach is collaborative and direct. She asks about goals and builds an action plan together with each person. Sessions focus on clear strategies, emotional understanding, and skills you can practice outside therapy.

Sandra draws from therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral methods, and attachment-informed work to address thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. She also uses client-centered and emotion-focused ideas to keep sessions focused on the person in front of her. That mix helps when problems are complex, like trauma paired with chronic illness or substance use.

With 13 years of experience, Sandra brings steady clinical judgment and practical tools to sessions. Her work often centers on helping people cope with chronic pain, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and the emotional fallout of medical illness. She emphasizes small, achievable changes that add up over time.

People who choose Sandra can expect straightforward communication, measurable goals, and a focus on coping skills. She supports clients as they try new ways of responding to hard situations and tracks progress toward their stated aims.

How Sandra’s Approaches Can Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters most and taking small steps toward those values. It helps when anxiety, low mood, or avoidance get in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. It is useful for depression, anxiety, and behavior change. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on how early relationship patterns affect current trust and closeness, which can be important for people coping with trauma or relationship struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sandra will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as goals shift or new challenges arise.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone use a quieter location or avoid being on camera when that helps them focus. Licensed professionals tailor the practical details to match each person’s routine and needs.
