About Sandra Treston

Congratulations for taking your first step towards a happier, healthier, more fulfilling life! It takes courage and wisdom to seek help, and I’m so glad that you’ve decided that you deserve more out of life. Life struggles are painful and can feel overwhelming. But they can also be gifts in disguise, pushing us to get out of our comfort zones, get out of auto-pilot, examine why we do what we do, and break free of old patterns that are not working for us. In essence, pain is a signal for an opportunity for growth. I would be honored to work in partnership with you to inspire, motivate, educate, empower and support as you work towards the life that you want.
My name is Sandra Treston, and I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with over 15 years of experience working with adults facing multiple different obstacles, in multiple different settings. I am an open-minded, non-judgmental, empathetic and compassionate therapist who uses a strength-based approach when helping my clients become the best version of themselves. I truly believe that we all have what we need inside of us to achieve our wildest dreams, but many times life hits us and we forget just how magnificent we are. I will work with you to provide the skills, support, encouragement, and sounding board you need to help you rediscover the strength, wisdom, and courage you always had. My goal is to inspire and challenge you to face your obstacles head-on, and together we will create a plan of action what will align you with your best version and vision of yourself.
I’m very excited to start working with you!
Wishing you peace of mind, and total wellness always,
Sandra Treston

“Enjoying my experience.”

“Sandra makes me feel very comfortable and she is very supportive and kind. You can tell she has a good heart and gives great feedback. I’m so glad I decided to start therapy. She’s made this whole experience worth it!”

“Sandra has been a great point of clarity for me in this period of my life. She has been extremely patient, understanding, and helpful. I am not always the easiest client to have, given my location and time zone along with my work hours so I appreciate her flexibility. I would highly recommend Better Help and Sandra for those interested in providing clarity and compassion to their lives and personal situations.”

“Very knowledgeable, very patient ! Really wants to help me and understand my needs! Just all around caring and has really made a difference for me!!”

“Sandra is brilliant. A great listener who provides me with the level of support and the methods I need for my emotional health”

“Sandra is the reason I have faith in these platforms. It can seem quite impersonal to pursue support online, but Sandra is a friend. She is a mirror of the things I might not want to hear but need to sit with. She is wonderful”

“Sandra has been nothing short of amazing. Therapy is a big step towards healing and Sandra makes it feel a lot less painful going through the waves and accepting what cannot be changed. I’d recommend BetterHelp and especially Sandra to anyone!”

“Sandra is brilliant! She has helped me immeasurably”

“Sandra is very easy to talk to. She's a good listener which makes her adaptive to my needs in the moment. She has directed me towards issues I need to look at and she challenges me to grow and develop in the most gentle way. She also gives encouragement which I need. look forward to talking to her each week plus she gives me extra support if I am in crisis. I'm so glad that she was matched with me.”

“Sandra has been nothing short of amazing. You will understand once you work with her!”

“Sandra is fabulous. Knowledgeable, with useful mental aids to help the different issues I sometimes struggle with.<br /> Sandra has helped me so much and the thing I like most is she seems to understand what works best for me. Rarely, if ever, does she give me advice or methods that I don’t think would be beneficial for me.”

“She is very easy to talk to and understands my situation.”

“Sandra is always extremely understanding and open minded. She remembers the smallest things and it really makes you feel cared for. I’d recommend Sandra to anyone looking for a very intuitive, brilliant and strong minded person for guidance. She will never leave you feeling alone or like there isn’t any other options. It’s been a blessing to work with Sandra!”

“Sandra has opened my eyes to whole new side of my psyche that I didn’t even know what there. I’ve had a wonderful experience with her; she’s extremely thoughtful, a wonderful ear, and above all else, she is an amazing therapist. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Excellent therapist!”
