More about Sana

8 years' experience
Female
LCSW

I am available for virtual visits with clients in Hawai'i, but personally based in North Carolina. I have worked with adults who present with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, psychosis, mania, substance use, interpersonal relationship issues, and trauma. I have also worked with clients of varying gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, socioeconomic status, and education level. If you are interested in working together, then please verify your personal information through Headway.co and we can schedule a 15-minute telephone consultation to see if we would be a good match before beginning our telehealth sessions.

My therapy approach is warm and person-centered. I always meet my clients where they are at. I implement multiple treatment modalities, with a dash of humor, and utilize each client’s strengths to identify solutions and guide them to where they want to be. I will accommodate our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life, and I am proud of you for taking the first step towards change. It would be an honor to assist and support you through the next stage of your life.

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.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
