About Sandra

LISW in Ohio with three years of experience. Sandra Bachman focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns.

Sandra works with adults who want clearer communication, more self-respect, and relief from persistent worry. She uses straightforward conversation and practical skills rather than jargon. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep problems going and try new behaviors to change them.

In the room she draws on several evidence-based methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful feelings without getting stuck and clarify what matters to them.

She also integrates client-centered techniques that let a person set the pace and focus of sessions. For trauma that continues to interfere with daily life, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is part of the toolbox when appropriate. The Gottman Method informs work on relationship skills and communication.

Sandra pays attention to attachment patterns, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose. Her approach breaks issues into tasks people can practice between sessions, like conversation exercises or short behavioral experiments. This helps people test what works in everyday life.

To begin someone follows the site flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. Online ACT sessions typically focus on values clarification and short experiments to practice between meetings, which can be easy to track remotely. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns and replaces them with practical skills. In remote sessions, CBT often uses worksheets, behavior tracking, and homework assignments that clients review together with the therapist. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for trauma that continues to affect daily life. When EMDR is part of care the therapist guides graded processing and grounding exercises, adapting pacing to the client’s comfort in remote work. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss which methods match the person’s goals, symptoms, and preferences and will adjust the plan over time as needs change. Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Expect online work to make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, handle shorter check-ins when needed, and use digital worksheets or exercises between sessions. The emphasis is on practical tools that transfer to everyday life rather than lengthy theory.
