About Sandra Milstein-Ostrom
LMFT #121126
I have over 15 years of experience working with adults, couples, families and children. I specialize in treating weight management, insomnia, disordered eating, substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. My passion is helping people build a better life.
I have overcome many of my own challenges, ranging from overeating, depression, anxiety, substance use, and helping family members with special needs. I believe my lived experience, along with my education and expertise, put me in a unique position where I can relate to you, and also help you reach your goals and potential.
I am trained in and utilize CBT, ACT, DBT, CBT-I, and Gottman Couple’s Therapy.
I am originally from Mexico City and can provide therapy in both English and Spanish. At age twelve, I moved to San Diego and then completed my education at University of California at San Diego, California School of Professional Psychology, and Brandman University. I am married, have two wonderful sons, and a shepherd mix dog. During my free time I enjoy hiking, tennis, playing with my dog, and reading a good book.
I look forward to meeting you, so we can work together to make your life better!

“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”
