Sandra Crisp , LPC

Sandra Crisp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing depression, grief, addictions, trauma, and low self-esteem. She writes straightforwardly with people who often have more than one concern at the same time. Sessions focus on practical goals and clear steps so people can start feeling steadier in daily life.

Sandra draws on a mix of evidence-informed approaches to shape each plan. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot patterns of thinking that get in the way. She also leans on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people live more in line with their values. Attachment-informed techniques are used when past relationships affect current trust and connection.

Her work often includes coping strategies for chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and the long effects of abuse. She supports people working through abandonment worries, commitment issues, and communication problems. Chronic pain and the emotional toll of serious medical conditions are addressed alongside mood and substance concerns.

Sandra describes counseling as a shared process. She helps set goals, then builds practical steps with each person. Phone or video sessions can be used to fit counseling into a busy life, and messaging options allow shorter check-ins when needed.

With 13 years of experience and her LPC credential, she practices from Texas and offers sessions in English. International clients may be served when scheduling allows.

How Sandra’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take realistic steps toward those values, even when hard feelings are present. It can be useful for depression, grief, and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with mood, anxiety, and patterns that feed addictions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sandra works collaboratively to pick methods that match a client's goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools fit best for the issue at hand.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation when a fuller session is desired. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging suits short check-ins, quick skill practice, or times when typing feels most comfortable. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and stay consistent with the work.
