The Cozy Counselor
Live Like You Mean It
Hello! Thanks for stopping by!
My name’s Sandy, and I’m the person behind the blog. I live in a small town outside of Nashville, TN with my husband Macon, and I have an obsession with living a healthy, lovely, beautiful life in all aspects.
I like to take a holistic approach to life and work. There are so many things we can do every day which add up to a lovelier life.
In my work life, I'm a professional counselor and I'm absolutely passionate about working with clients and helping them move towards healthier lives in all areas. In my personal life, I love living out the skills, thoughts, ideas, and passions I talk about with clients.
I love sharing all kinds of things with you . . . from interiors, to skincare, wellbeing, pets, and cooking.
It’s not about leading a ‘perfect life’ – not at all!
But making things a little bit prettier, or a bit more enjoyable IS do-able and that’s my sweet spot.
I hope you’ll enjoy perusing the blog! There are LOTS to explore here.
If you fancy getting to know a bit more about me, there’s the long-length bio below, otherwise recharge your mug/glass (no judgement! ☕️????!) and enjoy a peruse of The Cozy Counselor.


More about me
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor I'm also certified as a mental health integrative medicine provider. I've been serving clients for over 35 years in many different capacities. I'm still passionate about what I do and helping others. Even my name, Sandra, means helper of people.
My husband and I are empty nesters who enjoy creating an intentional life that is lovely and mindful. Spending time with our dogs, sitting on the back porch watching for the deer (including a gorgeous albino deer!), creating nourishing meals, working out together, and creating a space which we can enjoy and that inspires us all work together to create a simply wonderful life.
