Edna Sanders, LCSW

Edna Sanders is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience. She practices in Indiana and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. She aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck.

Clients can expect a down-to-earth approach that emphasizes listening first. Edna pays attention to how identity, culture, and life roles shape problems. She helps people name what matters and take small, workable steps toward change.

Her background includes work with grief, addiction, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and mood disorders. She also supports people with attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, and challenges that come with aging.

In sessions she uses a mix of methods to match the person in front of her. That can include client-centered conversations to build trust, cognitive-behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness practices to manage strong emotions.

Edna also brings techniques from dialectical behavior and emotionally-focused approaches when relationships and intense feelings are central. She helps clients under stress learn practical skills for sleeping, managing anger, and improving communication. Her work is aimed at helping people feel more steady and connected in daily life.

How Edna Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Edna uses client-centered methods that focus on the person and their goals. That approach means sessions begin with listening and understanding what matters most. It helps people who feel confused or stuck name their priorities and set clear, achievable steps.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. CBT offers concrete exercises and homework that can be practiced between sessions to ease anxiety, depression, or sleep troubles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is another tool she draws on when strong emotions or difficulties with regulation are present. DBT teaches practical skills for managing intense feelings, handling conflicts, and improving day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Edna will work together with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This shared planning makes therapy feel more useful and focused on real life.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt tools like CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and emotion-regulation skills to an online setting so progress can continue between sessions.
