About Sandra
Sandra Treston is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, trauma, and relationship concerns. Sandra speaks plainly, listens without judgment, and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She prefers a strength-based style that highlights a person's existing resources. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with attention to building everyday skills. Sandra offers straightforward guidance, encouragement, and a calm space to talk through hard moments.
Background and approach
Sandra uses a mix of evidence-informed methods tailored to each person's needs. That can include approaches that focus on acceptance and values, tools to change unhelpful thinking, or skills for handling strong emotions. She adapts techniques to fit how someone prefers to learn and solve problems.
Her background includes work across multiple settings over a 15-year career. That experience brings familiarity with mood disorders, addiction, grief, identity struggles, and relationship friction. Sandra aims to help people move from feeling stuck to taking practical steps forward.
In sessions she emphasizes small, doable changes. People often work on managing intense feelings, improving communication, and breaking old patterns. Sandra helps clients build plans that fit their daily lives and supports them as they try new approaches.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward them while learning to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical strategies to change mood and behavior. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotions and improving how people respond to strong feelings to repair important connections.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sandra will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring. Together they will try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time so the approach fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation when schedules allow. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, ongoing encouragement, or when someone wants to write instead of speak. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or busy days while still working on the same therapeutic goals.
