About Sandy

Sandy Rogers, MSW is an LCSW who graduated from West Virginia University in 1992. As a seasoned clinician, Sandy has 32 years of experience in the field and is licensed in West Virginia, Florida. What makes you enjoy working with seniors?

I enjoy listening to their stories of their childhood and young adult life. I enjoy helping them identify ways to improve their mental health and to be happier in life. Why do you think online therapy is effective for seniors?

I think online for seniors is effective as most seniors I have worked with have said they enjoy our talks each week and it helps them to talk to someone other than family because they often don't want to worry their families or think they are busy. What is your experience working with seniors? I grew up on a all senior but me neighborhood and spent a lot of time watching pets, mowing grass, or just visiting with my senior neighbors.

I have also worked with seniors as a Nursing Assistant, Activity Director, and Social Worker in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. I have also been a Board Member working with a non-profit serving seniors. Can you provide details on your approach to therapy?

I use the common Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach of identifying problems and learning coping skills to better deal with those problems.
