Sandra Crisp, LPC

Sandra Crisp offers help for people struggling with depression, grief, addictions, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She focuses on practical steps clients can use to reduce symptoms and regain control. Sandra writes simple, achievable goals with each person and works alongside them through setbacks and progress.

Her approach emphasizes collaboration. Sessions are direct and focused, with room to talk through feelings and learn new coping skills. She uses strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Acceptance and commitment ideas are woven in to help people clarify values and take meaningful action.

Sandra also attends to how attachment and relationships shape emotions. That perspective helps when people struggle with abandonment, attachment issues, or communication problems. She draws on client-centered listening to make sure each person feels heard and understood.

With 13 years of experience, Sandra brings steady clinical experience to complex cases. She has worked with people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and life changes related to aging. Her background includes work with co-occurring conditions and situations where more than one issue is present.

Sandra is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical plans that fit real life. The aim is to build skills that last beyond therapy and to support people as they rebuild routines and relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Sandra draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT often focuses on small, practical experiments and steps people can try between sessions to see what helps.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients notice painful feelings without getting stuck, and to clarify what matters most to them. That approach supports people who want to act in line with their values even when emotions are intense. Attachment-based ideas are used to understand how early relationships shape current reactions and to improve communication and connection in important relationships.

Choosing an approach is a joint process. Sandra will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then recommend methods to try. Progress is reviewed together and plans are adjusted to fit changing needs.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy or dispersed lives. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skill practice, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules.
