More about Sandra
- 27 years' experience

- LPC
Whether struggling with emotions or simply wanting a better life, I assist people to unconditionally love and accept themselves. My counseling focuses on assisting my client to learn what works/doesn't work for you them to create the life they want. Each of us are unique and are learning how to live this wonderful life we have been given.
I offer Cognitive-Behavioral counseling from a Spiritual Psychology perspective. This Soul-Centered view is filled with great love, joy, compassion, acceptance and peace. Not connected to any religion, this approach recognizes that we are Souls having a physical experience. We are here to learn and grow.
Most of our emotional suffering comes from judgments based in misunderstanding and illusion. We misinterpret, have false expectations, lack forgiveness for ourselves and others, and get caught seeking material things to fill up the hole we feel inside. Sessions focus on PRACTICAL SKILLS that work in your life.
I have a Doctor of Spiritual Science degree combined with a Masters of Education - Agency Counseling and have over 25 years of experience. Before becoming a counselor, I worked with businesses to develop and train teams to be more effective.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Amazing and compassionate
She is wonderful
She was very nice and thoughtful and I enjoyed talking to her
Dr Brown's friendly, professional and empathetic approach has made therapy sessions an important part of the week for me. Always engaging and non-judgemental, she has been invaluable in helping me to feel more grounded and at ease with myself.
Dr. Browne was wonderful! She took the time to review all of my information and provided me with a great meditation technique I use whenever I feel overwhelmed.
Sandi has been incredibly helpful! She understood my goals, helped me achieve them, her support and insight was key to me putting in the work to rediscover myself. 11/10 would recommend!
She really listens and isn't quick to tell me what I'm doing wrong but goes into why I'm thinking this way
Dr. Browne always encourages me to keep “things” in perspective. I appreciate her insight and practical suggestions as to how to deal with troubling situations and feelings. She’s been very helpful and supportive!
I have been very pleased with Dr. Browne (Sandi). She’s very quick to understand my situation and provide not what I think I need, but what I really need based on her experience and insight. She’ll get to the root when necessary, but focuses forward rather than dwelling on fears/past experiences. She inspires trust with her very warm and inviting personality.
Dr. Browne is the best help I have ever recieved. So grateful
Sandi keeps me on tasks for the things I need to focus on. I like that she regularly reminds me of the important things in my life.
Sandi's experience is helping me so much with the issues I'm trying to solve. Her ability in making me view things from different perspectives and with the kindest voice and attitude is making all of this so worth it. She's also providing me with more general tools that will definitely help me in the future.
Dr.Browne is the best therapist I have ever met with. She listens and has got to the root very quickly. I highly recommend her.
Dr Browne helps me see a different perspective and is great at listening and guiding my thoughts.
I like that Sandi reminds me of my goals when I distract from them. She is committed to my betterment and I can tell.
Dr. Browne is great with listening, but beyond that, she actually provides doable solutions or strategies that I can try immediately. She answers quickly. This is the first time I’ve had a therapist that didn’t mind checking in with me throughout the week. She is spiritual as well and not just head knowledge. I appreciate her gift.
I have been very satisfied with my experience with Dr Browne.
Dr.Sandra Browne is a therapist who knows how to listen and ask the right questions. She is patient and conversations naturally lead to answers/recommendations. I would definitely recommend Dr. Browne for people who have come to terms on an issue and seek future guidance pertaining it (coping, addressing, reflecting, ect). She is also very accessible via messaging.
