About Sandra Schmid, Registered Clinical Social Work Intern
With me, you can be you, and you can take off the mask.
I am a Registered Clinical Social Work Intern in the state of Florida. I have extensive experience counseling children, teens, and adults, including many individuals on the Autism Spectrum.
You’re not expected to be perfect here. Just human. Together, we’ll create space for healing and growth.
Helping clients achieve their therapy goals is very meaningful to me, and I find it deeply rewarding. I have worked with clients facing a variety of challenges, such as parental separation, suicidal thoughts, grief and loss, self-harm, and trauma.
Additionally, I have experience supporting individuals who are neurodivergent, have personality disorders, or experience anxiety and panic disorders.
I believe that seeking therapy is a courageous and valuable step toward caring for yourself. My aim is to provide a safe space where you can feel comfortable being your authentic self. Ultimately, I hope to help you lighten the burdens, shame, and fears that trauma may have caused, offering you the opportunity for healing and growth.
How I work
You already possess many of the resources you need.
therapy simply provides guidance in helping you access and utilize them more effectively to realize your fullest potential.
I incorporate a variety of techniques with the aim of supporting clients in developing coping skills while they explore and embrace their authentic selves. I also use trauma-focused therapy techniques to assist in healing any wounds from the inner child.
My intention is to create a warm and supportive environment where you feel comfortable connecting with and nurturing your inner self at a pace that feels right for you.
