Sandra West, LPC

Sandra West is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. As an LPC, she holds a state license to provide professional counseling and therapeutic services, and she approaches each person with respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care.

Sandra centers her work on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse recovery, and the emotional impacts of grief and loss. She also assists people experiencing low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, intimacy-related issues, parenting and blended-family challenges, and major life transitions such as career changes or relocation. Her additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver and geriatric concerns, body image and eating and sleeping difficulties, dissociation and co-morbid presentations, codependency, and communication or control problems.

Clinically, Sandra draws from a broad range of evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each person’s needs. Her methods include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment-Based and Trauma-Focused therapies, mindfulness and somatic interventions, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and existential and client-centered perspectives. This integrative stance helps clarify barriers, identify practical next steps, and align treatment with individual values and goals.

Sandra emphasizes a collaborative, strengths-based relationship in which the individual is viewed as the expert on their own life while the therapist provides guidance, skills, and support to build confidence and coping. She provides services in English and is informed by trauma-aware and client-centered principles. She is not currently accepting new clients.
