Hi! Let me start by telling you a little about myself. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I have 23 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with a culturally diverse population with a variety of mental health challenges. I assist clients with creating goals to improve their mental health and wellness.
My counseling style is interactive, non-judgmental and respectful. I have enjoyed the opportunity to help others develop self-awareness, coping skills and behavior modification. I believe the therapeutic process is a partnership between a therapist and an active and willing participant focused on getting to wellness in their individual journey. As we all are complex and individual beings with personal underlying factors, my favored methodology is Integrative Therapy. I believe this method allows the therapist and the participant freedom to explore various aspects of self with varied approaches.
If you are ready to take that first step towards change, I am here to support and empower you! Please note that I do not work on the weekends and won't be online.
Let’s get started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Excellent therapist.
Sandra Oteri is a great listened. I like the worksheet she sent me. As well as the open conversation to discuss on the next section.
Sandra is a great therapist. I have worked with her before and decided when I needed more help to come back to Sandra. Sandra helps with the problems I have and by talking it out, I get solutions.
I have been working with Ms. Oteri for a while now and she has been a tremendous help in personal life. She is a great person, who cares for others and always gives you good ideas for problem solving. While other things in my personal life have been unstable, Ms oteri has always been very stable and a solid part of my life through many challenging times. I appreciate her and you will too :)
Sandra Oteri is a professional who really listens and understands the issues I present to her during my sessions. I feel like I have someone in my corner who is routing for me. She is also flexible with timing and method of sessions. She's helped me make some tough decisions and I am grateful to her for that.
Sandra Oteri is a wonderful therapist. She's attentive, picks up on the issues that matter, and uses our time together in a way that really helps me. Highly recommend.
Dr. Oteri has been a wonderful therapist to me. She listens about my issues and she helps me see areas where I can improve or set healthy boundaries.
Sandra has been a great listener so far and I’m optimistic that she will help me achieve my goals.
I haven’t had her as a therapist for very long but so far, I have nothing but great things to say about her. Very professional, seems to really care, easy to schedule during the day, and does respond in a very timely manner.
Very helpful and easy to talk to
I feel that Sandra was perfectly matched with me. She is an incredible listener. She helps me with the most important thing which is making sure I am taking care of me #1. She definitely knows how to guide a person and their specific needs. I am so thankful to have her on my journey
Working with Ms. Oteri has been a wonderful experience, and she has been a tremendous help in helping me manage a very difficult point in my personal life. I would highly recommend her as a counselor to anyone that I know. Thank you for everything Ms. Oteri!
Sandra is incredibly understanding but she also helps me address my issues. It is not easy for me to make certain changes but she has encouraged me and helped me stick with my goals.
Sandra has been very helpful since the beginning of our sessions. She is supportive and communicates with me as needed.
