Online support

Approaches that translate to online sessions

Sandra uses hypnotherapy to help people access calmer states and reduce unhelpful habits or stress responses. In an online setting this can mean guided relaxation and imagery adapted to video or audio formats.

Attachment-Based Therapy is part of her work when relationship patterns and early bonds affect current struggles. This approach helps people notice how connection styles shape their reactions and learn new ways to relate to others.

Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her practice. It focuses on listening, reflecting back what a person shares, and helping them find their own solutions rather than following a rigid plan.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Sandra will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and daily life to decide which methods suit them best. She often blends techniques so sessions remain practical and responsive to change.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging can be used for brief reflection or reminders between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, manage follow-up between appointments, and continue care when travel or relocation occurs.
