“Sandra is very good at making a personal connection with the client and making it feel as though you are speaking with a commiserating friend rather than a professional. Her solutions are all small, attainable changes that make an impact and she's willing to approach a problem from multiple angles when one solution or attempt at resolution doesn't work.”

Getting to know Sandra Peña
Hello! I am Sandra, a licensed marriage and family therapist with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Phillips Graduate University. I have over 5 years of experience working in a community mental health setting with primarily adults, couples, and adolescents. My approach is to meet you where you are at by providing a safe place for you to feel validated and seen. I chose to be in the mental health profession because I want people to know that they are not alone. Everyone has the right to communicate and feel what they want to feel. My passion is to help you find your balance and your self-worth so you can live the life you deserve and desire. It is an honor and privilege to join you on your own journey of improving your well-being.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Together, we will collaborate to find a therapeutic goal that is effective and supportive to your needs and challenges. My goal is to provide you with the tools and support that you need during your journey. We are in this together!
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
