About Sandra
Sandra WIllis is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and ADHD. She describes therapy as a practical space for looking at what you want and setting achievable goals.
Sandra uses an integrative way of working, combining methods to suit each person. Sessions focus on talking through current problems, noticing patterns and trying small changes. She invites clients to think about goals and what steps might move them forward.
Her background includes work in schools and an agency setting, where she spent time supporting young people. That experience informs how she talks about relationships, communication and the pressures people carry from family and upbringing. Sandra also notes experience with neurodiversity and eating and food-related issues.
In a first session she asks about what matters now and what has helped or not helped before. She and the client then agree on short-term goals and practical next steps. Sandra adapts her approach as those goals change over time.
People come to her with a wide mix of concerns, including chronic illness, caregiver stress, fertility and cancer-related distress. She aims to work respectfully and with sensitivity while focusing on clear, achievable ways to reduce distress and improve everyday functioning.
How Sandra brings evidence-based methods into online work
Sandra describes an integrative approach that draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. One common technique focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It helps with anxiety, low mood and patterns that keep problems going by breaking them into smaller, manageable steps.Another technique she uses centres on improving relationships and communication. This approach looks at how people interact, the expectations they bring, and practical ways to alter how they respond to others. It can be useful for relationship strain, commitment worries and family-related tensions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sandra says she will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. That means checking in and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the specific session formats before booking. The practical benefits of remote work can include fitting therapy into a busy day, having shorter check-ins when time is tight, or choosing a format that needs less bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals can help you pick the setup that best fits your routine and goals.
