About Sandra Graham

I am licensed in Tennessee and Kentucky with 25 years of professional work experience. My career has entailed work in a residential setting (RTC) working with children and adolescents ages 5 to 17, with co- occurring disorders, emotional, behavioral, and neurodevelopmental challenges.

In addition to providing services in a RTC, I also have experience in outpatient community mental health, and home based counseling. My clinical skill set consist of assisting clients cope with anxiety, loss and grief issues, issues with self esteem, depression, trauma, relationship issues & family issues. In addition to the aforementioned I also have experience with providing services for military children and families.

I believe that you are the expert of your own story and that you have many existing strengths that will assist you in overcoming the things that challenge you. Taking the step to start therapy can take courage, and I am proud of you for such bravery. I look forward to cheering you on as you become your best version of your true authentic self.

“Sandra has been very helpful in giving us many tools on how to be vulnerable, communicate effectively, and also how to be transparent. She has improved our relationship!”

“Sandra is logical, she listens, understands and responds in a tactful, yet honest and constructive manner.”

“My therapist is very understanding. I feel no judgement while discussing past trauma and any other issues.”

“Mrs. Sandra is extremely refreshing and easy to talk to. Her style is very warm but when she’s giving you a nugget that you need to hear, she makes sure you’re getting it. She’s a straight shooter; there’s no guessing what she means when she’s communicating with you. I am so thankful that we were matched here! She’s been an amazing resource!”

“She listens and you feel her love and care even through the video chat!”

“Sandra is a wonderful listener and provides solutions that work.”

“Dr. Graham seems extremely knowledgeable. We've only had two sessions and are anticipating more, her experience with military couples makes her a standout.”

“Highly recommended. Sandra is the best.”

“Great”

“Sandra Graham has been professional in every way,she listens and has helped me tremendously through this process.”

“Sandra is very intuitive she knows what you need and when you need it. She is able to read reactions. She knows when to back off and when to push you more. Sometimes we need to speak but it’s hard. She can be gentle but very good with her words to know what to say to help you bring it out. I highly recommend her.”
