Hello, looking for a place to process life? Feeling isolated and alone? Need an outlet? I've been providing talk therapy to adult men and women (and adolescents) since 2013 in several different treatment settings. Safe, open, supportive, but also directive when solutions are needed though space to simply talk through issues and life (Depression, anxiety, hypomania, stress, relationships, relaxation, etc.) I'm a clinical supervisor and terminally licensed in three states (PA,NM, & TX). I'm a husband and father with a young family, enjoy sports and cooking with and for family.

Dee Ann Sands

Therapist

Virtual • New Mexico


I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in New Mexico with 36 years of experience. I specialize in addiction and dual diagnosis — including porn addiction, gambling, and the complex emotional layers that come with each. My practice is fully virtual, so I work with you from the comfort of wherever you feel most at ease. I've also lived through my own profound experience with disability and recovery, and that journey has given me a deeper, more personal understanding of what it means to face suffering, adapt, and keep going.
