Sandra specializes in Perinatal Mental Health is committed to creating an inclusive and supportive space where participants can deeply and authentically connect with the messages and wisdom of their bodies—a space free from competition, comparison, or emphasis on external measures of success or progress. Whether in recovery from an eating disorder, or perinatal mood and anxiety disorder, dealing with grief, loss, or stress, or recuperating from a traumatic event, our bodies are integral to our psychological and emotional healing.
Sandra has 3 tiny people at home, including one set of twins and lives with them and her husband near a big spruce tree in St. Paul, MN. She believes that laughter, sleep, and water can solve most daily problems and is not afraid to use her New Jersey background to get real and honest with people. She loves hiking and fireplaces and reading long books.
