More about Sandra

  • LCSW

Hi,

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut with over seven years of experience in clinical support. I have over 16 years of experience in family support. I earned my master's degree in social work with a focus in Gerontology from Springfield College in 2013.

My specializations are working with individuals with anxiety, depression, communication, and parenting issues.

My counseling style is patient and client-centered. I believe in treating everyone with dignity, compassion, and respect. My approach combines talk therapy, Problem-Solving, Cognitive-behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, Humanistic, and Grief Counseling Therapy.

We all present our life stories differently depending upon the person and the situation. I am here to support you in making the next step toward a positive change.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Reviewed December 2021

Sandra has been great. I feel like she understands my concerns and offers suggestions but she’s not pushy. In the beginning, I was a little concerned about using an online therapist service because I thought that there might be constant messages to upgrade my service or try other products as well. BetterHelp, with Sandra, has been very helpful and works well for me. One thing that I especially like about it is that I don’t have to travel a half hour or 45 minutes to go see someone for an appointment. I have had my appointments at home, parked along the side of the road in my car, and in a private room at work without having to go anywhere. I love it.

I've gone to a few different therapists when in office visits were the norm.

Reviewed November 2021

I’m amazed at how quickly Sandra Ramos was able to cut to the quick of my problems in an efficient way without ever letting me feel as if I am not heard and understood. She has honored every request I have made in our sessions and crucially never appears to wrest control of the direction of the session away from you, even for a moment. After 15 years of therapy, I have finally found someone that gets me and facilitates discussions in a way that invariably helps me help myself in overcoming the problems I deal with. Cannot recommend highly enough and I have never recommended a therapist to anyone…before now!

Sandra has been so helpful in listening to my concerns and she always offers relevant advice that has helped me a lot in understanding my emotions.
