About Sandy

Sandy Burton is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who brings nine years of clinical experience to her practice.

Background and approach

She combines a warm, approachable manner with a commitment to addressing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, addictions, and issues related to identity and relationships.

Her background includes supporting clients through grief, parenting challenges, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD, and she also attends to related areas like body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Clients can expect a clinician who values both lightness and depth, able to move from easy rapport to meaningful therapeutic work.

Sandy draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered techniques and motivational interviewing to help people clarify goals, examine unhelpful patterns, and build practical coping skills. She emphasizes collaboration and hope, working with individuals to develop strategies that fit their life circumstances and priorities.

Practicing in Texas, Sandy offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Her approach is grounded in respect for each person's experience and in helping clients find sustainable ways to manage change and foster growth.

How Sandy’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy



Sandy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood concerns, and stress. She also employs Client-Centered Therapy, prioritizing empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported while exploring goals and personal values.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sandy works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs and preferences, adapting strategies over time based on progress and feedback to ensure treatment stays relevant and practical.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to keep working through challenges from home. These options provide flexibility for follow-up, homework support, and ongoing conversation while preserving the therapeutic relationship with a licensed professional.
