Clinical and legal, in one room
Therapy that holds up under a court order
High conflict divorce puts therapy inside a legal frame. There are orders, deadlines, opposing counsel, and a record. Work that ignores that frame tends to stall or get thrown out.
Sandra reads the order, understands what the court is asking for, and builds the clinical work so it fits. Parents get a plan they can follow. Attorneys and guardians get documentation that is clear and defensible. Children get a pace that respects what they can actually handle.
None of it is legal advice. It is therapy that knows exactly where it sits.
How the work feels
Progress is rarely a straight line
Families arrive tired. Sometimes angry, sometimes grieving, often both. The goal is not a photograph of everyone smiling. The goal is a family that can be in the same room, say true things, and take the next step.
Sessions are direct and paced. You will know what the plan is, what is being asked of you, and what comes next.
Start with a consultation
Every new matter begins with a short consultation so Sandra can hear the situation, explain how the work would run, and confirm whether she is the right fit.
