About Saundra

Saundra Green is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 16 years of clinical experience. She blends psychotherapy with life coaching to help people move from feeling stuck to taking action. Her work often centers on relationship and parenting struggles, career shifts, and the daily stresses that wear people down.

She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps. Sessions are warm and interactive. She uses straightforward conversation to clarify goals and map small, doable changes.

Saundra has a particular interest in the challenges of modern dating and social media. She helps individuals who feel discouraged by online dating apps or who are struggling with how social media affects their relationships. She also addresses issues related to anger, fatherhood, abandonment, and communication problems.

Her approach draws on several methods including cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, existential questions, and client-centered talk. She adapts these tools to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

She also wrote a book titled Clarity, 7 Steps From Getting Unstuck to Taking Action, which aims to give readers practical steps when they feel blocked. People who want clear, actionable guidance may find the book a useful companion to therapy.

Saundra aims to create a respectful, compassionate space without stigmatizing labels. She encourages people ready to change to take small steps and build toward a more satisfying life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings show up. It helps people who feel stuck or overwhelmed by teaching simple skills to move toward what matters. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current intimacy and communication. It is useful for people who struggle with trust, closeness, or recurring relationship conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods and tweak them so the work fits the person’s life and aims.

Online formats make these approaches easier to use in everyday life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when discussing attachment patterns or practicing new responses. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, coaching prompts, and homework support between sessions. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, parenting, or busy schedules.
