Testimonials
“My therapist, Sandra Anderson, from the first session, has provided a very relaxed, safe space to discuss my concerns. She offers thought provoking questions and suggestions that have helped me to make some changes that have had a positive outcome. As a social worker by profession it is not always easy to put yourself on the receiving end of therapy but Sandra made me feel very at ease. I would highly recommend her and Family Guidance Centers.”
“I came into therapy after making some big life changes that I felt I could use additional support with. Sandra has made me feel incredibly heard and understood in our few months together. I look forward to my sessions every week, and have seen a great amount of personal growth that I have been able to apply to all areas of my life. I am so endlessly grateful for Sandra’s knowledge and support.”
