About Sandie
LCSW in Texas with four years of clinical experience, Sandie Hinton-Owens focuses on stress, anxiety, self esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She also pays attention to abandonment, attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, codependency, and family of origin issues. Sandie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and draws on her background in education to shape sessions.
Sandie spent nine years as a special education teacher before moving into social work. She holds a bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies and a master’s degree in social work from Texas State University. Her clinical training included hospital internships where she worked in intensive outpatient groups and did psycho-education alongside other clinicians.
Early clinical work included offering CBT, DBT, and skills-based group sessions in an inpatient or intensive outpatient setting and supporting adults with autism to build self-advocacy skills. She is rostered with the Hackett Center for Trauma and Grief in Adolescents, which relates to work with youth aged 12 to 20 on trauma and grief concerns.
For the past 3.5 years she has provided individual outpatient services and school-based supports for K-12 students. That mix of settings means she often brings practical strategies and clear skill-building into sessions. Parents will find brief, concrete recommendations along with time to talk through struggles.
In session Sandie focuses on building a steady therapeutic relationship and using techniques that match a person's needs. She aims to help people manage symptoms, improve communication, and build skills for handling daily challenges. Readers should confirm current session options and formats before booking.

How evidence-based approaches shape online work
Sandie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and learning. Cognitive behavioral approaches look at thoughts and behaviors and teach practical skills to reduce anxiety and manage mood. These approaches help with stress, low mood, and everyday problems that get in the way of functioning.She also uses dialectical behavior style skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. These techniques teach concrete methods for handling intense feelings, improving communication, and reducing impulsive reactions. For people with ADHD or executive function struggles, sessions often include organization and self-advocacy strategies that translate to daily routines.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to figure out which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That joint decision shapes what is practiced in sessions and what homework or skill practice is recommended.
Confirm the current session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people try skill practice in their everyday settings and follow up with concrete steps between meetings.
