About Twyla

Twyla Sanks brings nine years of clinical counseling experience to her work, combining compassion with a direct, solution-focused style that helps clients move toward meaningful change. As an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - she practices trauma-informed care with particular expertise in EMDR, and she applies practical strategies to simplify complex emotional and behavioral patterns.

She works with individuals, couples, and families, drawing on advanced training in the Gottman Method for relationship work as well as approaches that support stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and life transitions. Her background in education and school-based counseling informs a relatable, strengths-based perspective that resonates with people across the lifespan.

Known for an ability to build trust and rapport quickly, she also serves as an experienced Qualified Supervisor and mentor to clinicians. Her focus remains on real-life change - offering concrete coping skills, clarity around relationship dynamics, and trauma-sensitive interventions that fit each person’s goals and circumstances.

Evidence-based approaches for online counseling and couples work

Twyla Sanks integrates several therapeutic methods that translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress, and to build practical coping skills. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps reprocess distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact, often used for PTSD and complex trauma. The Gottman Method is a structured approach for couples that teaches communication skills, conflict management, and ways to rebuild connection and trust.



Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - Twyla works with each person or couple to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses. Clients can expect an individualized blend of techniques aimed at real-life change.



Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to choose the format that feels most comfortable. This range of options helps make consistent care more accessible while allowing therapists and clients to maintain momentum between sessions.
