About Me
Hello, I’m Piper Sandes, a family counseling intern with over four years of experience providing direct care to individuals diagnosed with Autism and other neurological conditions in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Human Development from the University of Alabama and my Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from Capella University.
Â
My therapeutic approach integrates psychodynamic techniques with a strong emphasis on authenticity, ethical practice, and genuine connection. I develop personalized, strengths-based interventions to support each individual’s unique journey toward growth and healing. I am especially passionate about helping families navigate emotional, developmental, and relational challenges.
Â
Under the supervision of Dr. Amanda Slaughter, I am expanding my clinical experience to serve a wider range of clients with compassion and evidence-based care. Supervised by Dr. Amanda Slaughter, Ed.D, LPC, RPT-S, CPCS.
