About Sandra
Sandra Alvidrez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety and supports those facing relationship and parenting strains. Sandra speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

Background and approach
Sandra draws on a few well-known approaches to shape sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the person’s goals and experience at the heart of each meeting.
She also uses elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy when they fit the situation. DBT offers concrete tools for managing strong emotions, while Solution-Focused work targets quick, practical steps toward real change. Sandra aims for a collaborative style.
She listens first, then suggests simple techniques you can practice between sessions. The emphasis is on small, achievable shifts that add up to clearer thinking and more stable mood. People seeking help with grief, eating concerns, anger, career stress, or compassion fatigue often find concrete strategies and steady support in her sessions.
Her background with multicultural and women’s issues informs how she frames questions and offers options.
How her approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and goals. Online sessions use that same listening-first approach so the client guides the topics and pace, which helps when sorting out personal values, relationships, or self-worth.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In remote sessions, CBT includes simple exercises and homework that can be reviewed over video, phone, or text to track progress and try new skills between meetings.
Sandra will collaborate with each person to find the best fit. Together they will discuss goals, try an approach, and adjust as needed. She frames this as a team effort where methods are tested and changed to match the client’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send quick updates, ask brief questions, or work through tools between appointments. This range helps people keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work, parenting, or travel schedules.
