About Sandra
Sandra "Chalice" Ledet is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oregon with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults on relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and other life changes. She also helps people who are dealing with addiction, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Sandra focuses on straightforward conversation and practical ways to handle feelings. In sessions she encourages people to talk through what is happening now and what keeps repeating. She draws on methods that look at how relationships shape feelings, how thoughts affect behavior, and skills for tolerating strong emotions.
People who come for help with anger may work on recognizing triggers, interrupting escalation, and practicing calmer responses. For trauma and grief she combines attention to memory and emotion with steps to rebuild daily routines and relationships. Work on relationships often includes improving communication and setting clearer boundaries.
Her background includes long experience in community and clinical settings across many kinds of problems. Sandra favors clear, realistic goals and short, usable tools that people can try between sessions. She invites practical feedback so therapy stays focused on what the client wants to change.

How sessions work
How her approaches fit into online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotions and behavior. Online sessions using this frame typically focus on patterns in close relationships and rebuilding trust and connection in everyday interactions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions CBT includes identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new behaviors, and practicing small experiments between meetings to reduce anger or anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match goals and preferences. That may mean combining relationship-focused ideas with CBT skills or adding strategies to manage strong emotions when needed.

In practice, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. They also let people practice new skills in their usual settings and bring real-life examples straight into the conversation.
