My name is Sandy Munoz, and I am here to support you and your family on your path to optimum mental health. I work with adolescents, teens, and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, school issues (bullying/academics/peer relations), communication, and trauma. I use expressive and creative interventions such as gaming, art, music, and sand tray to assist with self-reflection and healing. I will be with you along the way to provide gentle, compassionate reflection, validation, emotional support, and guidance on your path to healing.
I practice person-centered counseling and acceptance and commitment therapy while highlighting individual strengths, self-care, and values while also providing psychoeducation and resources. I utilize EMDR to identify early memories that impact current decision-making and process past and recent trauma.
I am passionate about helping individuals discover their authentic selves and find greater value and meaning in their relationships and day-to-day lives. I currently work at Distinctive Counseling with an amazing and diverse group of therapists ready to meet your individual needs. Please reach out with any questions!
