About Sandra
Sandra Bachman is an LISW with three years of clinical experience practicing in Ohio. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem. Sandra also pays attention to attachment concerns, communication problems, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.
Sandra works with adults who are facing change or feeling stuck after shifts in work, relationships, or health. She offers direct, practical conversations about coping skills and next steps. Sessions often include talking through patterns, clarifying values, and practicing new ways of responding to stress.
Her approach draws from several evidence-informed methods. Sandra uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test alternative ways of thinking and acting. She also employs client-centered techniques to keep the focus on the client's goals.
For people with trauma histories, Sandra uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address distressing memories and reactions. For relationship concerns she incorporates principles from the Gottman Method to improve communication and reduce conflict cycles. Motivational Interviewing supports people working through habits and substance use by building internal motivation for change.
Sandra describes her work as focused on practical skill building and clearer priorities rather than quick fixes. To begin, a prospective client completes a short questionnaire and schedules a first session. Sessions are offered in English and are provided under her Ohio LISW credential.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what matters to them and take small, values-aligned actions. In online sessions ACT is used to notice painful thoughts and commit to practical steps that fit a person's life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Delivered remotely, CBT often involves short exercises between sessions to practice new responses to stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing addresses disturbing memories and the reactions they cause. When used online, EMDR typically follows structured sets of processing and can help reduce the intensity of traumatic memories.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend one or a combination of methods. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain continuity of care while balancing daily responsibilities.
