About Sandra

Sandra WIllis brings four years of UK practice as a BACP counsellor. She introduces herself with warmth and a straightforward belief that people can change. Her way of working aims to reduce distress through clear goals and practical conversations.

Sandra listens with sensitivity and respect. She adapts how she communicates to suit each person rather than using one set method for everyone. Sessions focus on what a person wants and needs now, and on small steps that make daily life easier.

02

How Sandra works

Her core areas include stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem and ADHD. She also gives attention to attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family challenges and body image worries. Other areas she supports include cancer-related distress, chronic pain and caregiver strain.

Sandra has experience from work in schools and an agency, which included time supporting adolescents. That background shapes a practical, down-to-earth approach to problems that often feel overwhelming. She explains options and helps people weigh what might work for them.

Therapy sessions combine short-term goals with longer reflections on values and choices. Sandra encourages honest conversation about what is holding someone back and what could change. If someone is ready to take a first step, she offers steady support and clear next actions.

Online support options

How therapeutic methods meet online delivery

Sandra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. One common approach focuses on setting clear goals and working step by step to reduce stress and anxiety; this involves practical exercises, regular check-ins and reviewing progress. Another approach emphasises understanding attachment patterns and how they affect relationships, helping people notice old patterns and try different responses in everyday life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sandra will talk through options, ask about your needs and goals, and agree on a plan together. That plan can change as therapy progresses so you get techniques that fit your situation and preferences.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls support face-to-face conversation for deeper work, while phone sessions can be lighter and easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, day-to-day support or people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school and caregiving commitments, and to use formats that feel most comfortable.
