Working With Sandy
As a holistic therapist, I understand that true healing must address the whole person – mind, body, and spirit. My mission is to offer compassionate support and clinical expertise to help you overcome struggles and rediscover inner wholeness.
I provide individual counseling tailored to your unique needs, drawing from a diverse set of modalities. These include trauma-informed therapies to process painful experiences, as well as mindfulness practices to foster spiritual wellbeing. No matter your specific challenges with trauma, relationships, anxiety, grief, or finding meaning in life, I provide a non-judgmental space to listen, collaborate, and serve as a guide on your path toward growth.
My integrative approach addresses core emotional wounds and self-defeating patterns that may be unconsciously sabotaging your happiness and potential. By exploring these deeper issues in a safe space, you will gain insight into yourself and develop healthier, more empowered ways of living and relating to others.
While honoring your pain, I will also help you recognize your innate strengths, resilience, and capacity for joy and fulfillment. Healing is a journey. I will walk beside you, holding hope for your fullest potential and revival. You deserve to live with a sense of wholeness, purpose, and inner freedom.
My collaborative therapeutic style is like “Brunch with Besties.” I will tell you – in a kind, caring, and compassionate manner – you have spinach in your teeth. I will straighten your well-deserved crown without you ever knowing it was crooked. I believe in humble honesty and authenticity, which is exactly what you will get in this healing space.
Am I speaking your language?
If so, let’s connect!
A Little More About Sandy
I am licensed in the states of Maine (License number CC7249), North Carolina (License number 19295), South Carolina (License number 6895), and Georgia (License number LPC012207), and I am a registered Florida Telehealth Provider (Registration number 833). I am the owner of Foothold Counseling, LLC.
Prior to beginning my private practice, I completed my practicum and both internships at Lexington County Community Mental Health Center in Lexington, South Carolina. I worked with clients with issues such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, schizoaffective disorder, schizotypal disorder, anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and numerous personality disorders.
I currently work with individuals on a wide range of personal, developmental, and mental health concerns. I enjoy providing therapy for healers and working with individuals with adoption-related issues, issues related to divorce, trauma, and issues related to spirituality.
My goal is for my clients to feel heard and I seek to create a therapeutic environment where trust, autonomy, and personal strengths are core to the therapeutic relationship. Although I utilize therapies that are the best fit for my clients, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy are most influential in my work. I am also a practitioner instructor at Wake Forest University.
I live with my husband in Lexington, South Carolina. We have two adult children. My hobbies include reading, saltwater reefing, learning new things, kayaking, and spoiling my yellow Labrador, Leo.
