Sandra Henderson
Practical therapy for stress and relationships
About Sandra
Sandra Henderson offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and grief. She focuses on clear steps that help people cope with life changes and move forward. Sandra speaks plain English and aims to make sessions feel manageable and down-to-earth.
With 16 years of experience, Sandra draws on several well-established approaches to tailor work to each person. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns, client-centred listening to follow what matters most to the individual, and cognitive behavioural techniques to test and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Background and approach
Sandra also brings in psychodynamic and existential perspectives when they fit the client’s needs. Sandra holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. She practises with people across a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, depression and addiction.
Her additional focus areas include attachment issues, communication problems, codependency and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. Sessions are offered in English and Sandra accepts international clients. She is experienced with remote formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different routines and comforts.
Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. Sandra aims to help clients work out practical next steps, whether that means learning coping tools, talking through painful experiences or reconsidering life choices.

How Sandra’s approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and emotional responses, helping people notice recurring themes in their connections with others. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can find their own answers and feel heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and introduces small experiments to change them and reduce distress.Sandra will help clients decide which approach or mix of approaches is most useful. She treats this as a collaborative process, talking through goals and preferences and adjusting the plan as progress is made. Finding the right fit is part of the work rather than a one-time decision.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are useful for a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted, live chat can offer shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional support.
