As a health and wellness coach, Sandi excels in helping clients set meaningful goals, break down barriers, and achieve a balanced lifestyle.
Underpinning all of Sandi's work is a trauma-informed, narrative, and cognitive-behavioral foundation. However, recognizing that each client has unique needs and goals, she draws from a variety of therapeutic approaches and continually educates herself on the latest advances in psychology and psychotherapy. Sandi is dedicated to creating a safe, healthy, and collaborative environment for her clients, understanding that reaching out for help is a significant step towards mental health.
