Sandy Burton , LPC

Sandy Burton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with nine years of experience. She combines a friendly, down-to-earth manner with direct, practical work. Sandy keeps sessions honest and sometimes light so difficult topics feel easier to face.

She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to make space for each person's story. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps her guide clients through patterns that keep them stuck. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people find their own reasons to change.

Sandy works with many common concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addiction, trauma and abuse, and grief. She also supports people navigating relationship strain, parenting challenges, body image, caregiver stress, and ADHD. Sandy is mindful of issues that overlap, like chronic illness alongside mood concerns.

In sessions she aims to listen first, then offer direct tools and steps to try between visits. Conversations may include skills practice, goal-setting, and checking what is or isn’t working. Sandy encourages small, achievable changes that build over time.

Her approach suits people who want an approachable therapist who speaks plainly and focuses on practical progress. Sandy welcomes questions about how therapy might fit into a busy life and works collaboratively to set clear, realistic goals.

Approach and online sessions that fit your life

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, helping people feel heard and recognized while they decide what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It involves practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to explore ambivalence about change. It helps people find their own reasons to try new steps, which can be useful for addiction, motivation, or life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sandy will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will choose methods that match those aims. The plan can shift over time based on what helps.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people see facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing support, or when fitting therapy into a busy day.
