I have over 15 years of experience treating clients for the following concerns: Anxiety, Behavioral Issues, Depression, Family Conflict, Infidelity, LGBTQ+ Issues, Marital and Premarital, Parenting, Relationship Issues, Self Esteem, Sexual Abuse, Sleep or Insomnia, Trauma, and Women's Issues.
Hi I'm, Sandra Rico, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Sex Therapist. I utilize a Client-Centered approach to therapy where I assist the client in self-discovery, teach psycho-education, and encourage clients to develop coping skills to improve their lives. I work with a wide variety of clients including minorities. For telehealth sessions, I prefer seeing clients aged 18 and over. Nevertheless, some teens are interested in telehealth and as long as interest is shown, then of course, I will work with them. I have experience working with the LGBT+ and I encourage emotional expression in a safe environment.

Congratulations on your courageous decision to seek help! The process of healing begins with taking responsibility, realizing that it is you – and no one else – that creates your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Self-awareness is the first step to change. Only you are aware of your unique circumstances and needs from therapy. I go above and beyond to help those like you who choose to actively help themselves. Understand that the path to self-discovery and growth is not easy. It involves commitment, personal investment, and a desire to delve into the process of growth, healing, and self-love.

At some point in our lives, we all experience challenges and difficulties that can leave us feeling overwhelmed and hopeless. Whether it's a sudden loss, a traumatic event or an ongoing struggle with mental health issues, it's not uncommon to feel like we are alone in our pain. This is where counseling can play a crucial role in helping us to heal and find hope again.

My desire for our time together is that you feel seen, soothed, safe, and secure as we partner together in your journey. Life can be really hard, but you don't have to do it all alone.

Sometimes, in life, we find ourselves repeating the same patterns over again. We tell ourselves we will not make the same mistake each time, but we find ourselves repeating the same mistakes we promised not to repeat. We may look to our partners and say they are the problem; we may see everything as a problem except ourselves. And as we do that, we stay in a state of unhappiness and remain a victim of ourselves. So we must admit first that we are the problem, and then we must explore deep within the self the root cause of the situations we have experienced that have created those unhealthy patterns so we can heal and grow.

I believe that by providing support and practical feedback, clients will feel empowered to effectively address life’s tough challenges. I believe that facilitating the individual discovery of personal strengths, encourages individuals to work towards attaining their own personal growth and understanding of their path and direction. I believe change happens when people are given the guidance needed to draw on their own strengths and realize their potential.

Life's unexpected twists and turns can leave us feeling lost, but having someone who offers support without judgment can make all the difference. Creating a safe haven where individuals can freely express their emotions is both an honor and a privilege. If you're facing challenges and feel stuck, know that you don't have to go through it alone. As a former Army soldier and an Air Force spouse, I understand the anxiety and uncertainty that often accompany life's "hurry up and wait" moments. I believe this shouldn't extend to mental health—we deserve proactive support.

Do you get triggered and feel like you over-react to your children, partners, and family members? Do you feel like it is impossible to start and complete basic daily tasks? Are you tired of feeling like the people in your life take advantage of you? My path to becoming a therapist started in the classroom. After a few years of being an elementary school teacher, I recognized that I focused more on my students’ socioemotional education and their overall well-being than I did on academics.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
