About Me
Hi. I’m Sandra.
As a Pastoral Counselor, I specialize in providing faith-based care for adult Catholics and welcome all people of good will. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) certified by Boulder Crest Institute in Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) and a Legacy Master Mentor at CatholicPsych Institute.
My passion is being with people in the most painful times of life, bringing light and language to places darkened by trauma. Truth, with kindness and compassion, can break the bondage of shame and fear, isolation and despair, radiating the beauty of God’s healing love through the therapeutic relationship.
