About Sandra
Sandra Hack is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin. She brings 20 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. Sandra uses practical, down-to-earth language and focuses on clear steps to make life more manageable.
Sandra frames sessions around each person's needs. She listens first, then helps identify strengths and small changes that add up.
Background and approach
Much of her work uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts. She also draws on Client-Centered and Solution-Focused methods to keep sessions practical and goal-oriented. Parents often seek support for sleep, eating, behavior, and the daily strain of caregiving.
Sandra offers straightforward strategies for coping with grief, anger, addiction issues, ADHD, and relationship stress. She explains tools in plain terms so parents can try them between sessions. Her background includes crisis intervention and work across clinics, schools, and independent practice.
That variety informs an adaptable style that fits many family situations. Sessions move at a pace the client sets, with focus on what feels most pressing right now. Sandra emphasizes collaboration.
She helps people set clear, achievable goals and tracks progress along the way. If someone wants short-term problem solving or longer support through life changes, she adjusts the approach to match those aims.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a respectful relationship. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what you say, and helps you discover your own solutions. This approach helps when people need a steady, understanding presence while they sort out hard emotions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and parenting stress. People often use CBT strategies between sessions to see faster improvement.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the issues you bring to determine which methods to emphasize. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when a longer session is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around parenting, work, and other responsibilities.
