Saundra Green, LMFT

Saundra Green is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California with 16 years of clinical experience. She blends psychotherapy with life coaching to help people move from feeling stuck toward clearer action. Her work often centers on relationship and parenting concerns, career shifts, anger, and coping with life changes.

She offers straightforward conversations about intimacy and dating, including challenges that come from online dating apps and social media. Saundra also addresses multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, and issues related to fatherhood and young adults. Her practice aims to reduce shame and stigma while focusing on practical next steps.

Saundra uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based work, and client-centered approaches to shape each session. She adjusts the pace and techniques to match what the person needs in the moment, whether that means skill-building, values work, or examining patterns from the past.

Her style is warm, interactive, and respectful. Sessions are conversational and geared toward small, doable changes. She combines empathic listening with concrete strategies so people can try new behaviors between meetings.

Outside of sessions, she has published a book called Clarity: 7 Steps From Getting Unstuck to Taking Action. People who want straightforward guidance and practical steps often find her blend of coaching and therapy useful.

Approaches and Online Support for Everyday Challenges

Saundra often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, anger, and relationship patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify personal values and build small actions that align with those values when life feels overwhelming. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people form more secure ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist discusses goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then adjusts methods as needed. Sessions may blend techniques so the plan fits the person's needs rather than following one fixed method.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when meeting in person is hard. Phone sessions can be a good option for lower bandwidth or when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or brief problem-solving between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue momentum as life changes.
