In 2017, Sandra and Andrew gave seminars on Active Listening.  Seven years later, that early work has blossomed into ForeSee Partners, a community-driven organization that focuses on personal growth, relational engagement, community enrichment, life coaching, and mediation in and around Tacoma, Washington. ForesSee Partners supports your efforts to create and nurture engaged and effective relationships in the local community.

ForeSee Partners offers a variety of training, coaching, peer to peer supports, individual skill building, mediation and restorative practices programs, all to help you develop richer relationships in your life, school, organization, and community.

Sandra started working with families and children more than 40 years ago. She has served clients through intensive family preservation, foster care and private practice counseling.

Sandra is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW). and is mediation-trained.

For soul sustenance, she enjoys gardening, outdoor activities, hospitality and reading.
