“She‚Äôs my second provider from Rula (and a much better match for me), and she‚Äôs been so helpful in allowing me to really deconstruct my trauma and allowing me to feel comfortable, heard and validated. My somatic symptoms and anxiety have definitely reduced, and I‚Äôve been able to embrace a more confident side of myself that I had genuinely never been able to before. Sandra has changed, and will continue to, change my life for the better as I navigate living life with anxiety and trauma.”

Getting to know Sandra Hurtado
Hi there, I'm Sandra!
My name is Sandra E. Hurtado, LMFT. I earned my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix. You are the expert on yourself; I am here to guide you. You have the answers within, and together we will work to solve your issues. The past does not define who you are or your future.
My approach
My therapeutic approach is client-centered, using DBT and CBT to guide and practice coping skills.
My focus
Clients who are depressed, have anxiety, or have experienced trauma need a therapist who is empathetic and caring. They need effective coping skills and a listening ear to validate and reflect back their issues.
My communication style
The tone and environment are calm, caring, and empathetic. Clients feel cared for and listened to, finding a team focus on creating solutions.
My journey to therapy
As a therapist, I help people with their feelings and emotions, self-esteem, and relationships. My goal is for clients to come up with their own solutions with guidance.
My goals for you
Clients create their own goals based on their needs. They will feel guided in creating these goals as needed.
My first session with you
The first session establishes a therapeutic relationship by identifying problems, impairments, goals, and solutions.
