About Sandra
Sandra Crisp helps people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks plainly and focuses on clear steps people can try between sessions. Sandra is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, practicing in Texas with 13 years of experience.
Sandra sees that many clients cope with more than one issue at a time. She works with overlapping concerns like chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image, and communication problems.
How Sandra works
Sessions aim to address the whole picture rather than one symptom in isolation. Her approach blends practical strategies and supportive listening. Sandra uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thought and behavior.
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take small actions toward them. Therapy is collaborative and goal-focused. Sandra helps people set realistic steps and practices to try between meetings.
Progress is tracked so adjustments can be made when needed. People who prefer a warm, direct style often find this format helpful. The therapist emphasizes building useful skills while also validating difficult feelings.
Sandra’s aim is to help each person move toward a more manageable, meaningful life.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take small actions that match their values. It can be useful for depression, grief, and recovery from addiction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. That approach often helps with depression, low self-esteem, and coping with chronic illness.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Sandra will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your situation. She checks in and adjusts the plan based on what is helping you most, so the process stays collaborative and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video lets you meet face to face; phone works well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy days and different schedules while keeping the focus on progress and usable skills.
