Hello, and welcome. My name is Sandra Romero, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where you can feel safe, heard, and supported as you work toward healing and personal growth.
I have experience working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, and stress. Much of my work has focused on helping individuals recover from trauma, including survivors of domestic violence, while building emotional resilience and healthier relationships.
As a bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural therapist, I understand the unique experiences that many Hispanic and first-generation individuals face, including family expectations, cultural identity, caregiving responsibilities, and balancing multiples roles. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood and respected without having to explain your cultural background.
My therapeutic approach is warm compassionate, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based treatments such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), mindfulness, somatic approaches, and DBT skills. I also incorporate neuroscience-informed concepts to help clients better understand how stress and trauma affect the brain and nervous system and how healing is possible through new patterns and healthy coping strategies.
I believe every person has strengths, even when life feels overwhelming. Together, we will identify your goals, build practical tools, and work toward lasting emotional healing at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
For clients who wish to incorporate their Christian faith into therapy, I also offer faith-sensitive counseling that thoughtfully integrates biblical principles with evidence-based treatment in a respectful and client centered-way.
Seeking help is a courageous first step, and I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, hope, and a more fulfilling life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
