About Sandra

Sandra Myers is a licensed clinical social worker in Louisiana who uses a compassionate, person-focused style to help people through hard times. She centers sessions on what matters most to each individual and aims to make therapy straightforward and practical.

Sandra helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and big life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, LGBT issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, and career questions. Her practice includes work around ADHD, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Her sessions emphasize listening first, then working together on clear goals. Sandra draws from client-centered methods so the person sets the pace. She combines cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and DBT skills to manage strong emotions when needed.

Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven into her work to help clients build awareness and find internal motivation for change. She uses short, practical strategies clients can try between sessions. Sandra also helps people create coping plans for ongoing health issues, caregiver stress, and grief related to illness or loss.

Therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Sessions operate on a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sandra works in English and practices across Louisiana, bringing eight years of experience as an LCSW.

How Sandra’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead to identify goals and priorities; online sessions can make it easier to start by meeting where a person feels most comfortable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down relationships between thoughts, emotions, and actions and offers practical tools to try between sessions for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sandra collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences, adjusting techniques as goals evolve. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that feels manageable and realistic.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which support different needs. Video is useful for a more traditional session with visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is good for quicker check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between scheduled meetings. These options provide flexibility to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or medical needs while using CBT and client-centered strategies effectively.
