About Me

Sandy Larson, MSW, LMSW

I am a licensed social worker with a Masters in Counseling and a MSW and have been working in the field for over 20 years.

My approach integrates evidence-based Mindfulness, Inner Child work, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I help clients understand the interconnectedness of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, fostering targeted change. By addressing physical responses to stress, I guide clients in introducing calm, mindful moments and choosing thoughtful responses to change rather than being reactive. Using interactive and non-judgmental methods, I prioritize real progress, empowering clients as experts in their journey toward positive change.

My first priority in starting to collaboratively work with a new client is ensuring that they feel safe, heard, and as an equal partner in the therapeutic process. As an experienced telehealth provider, I offer the convenience of remote sessions to help make therapy a core component of your self-care calendar. My office is located in Troy, MI. and I have limited in person sessions available.
