About Dr Sandra Shachar

44+ Years of Experience
I have extensive training and over 44 years of experience using evidence-based solutions for individuals and couples seeking greater satisfaction, harmony, and peace in their relationships, work, and personal health. I specialize in relationship and communication issues, with advanced work focused on Betrayal Trauma related to infidelity, sex/love/porn addiction, and problematic sexual behavior. I am licensed in Pennsylvania and Missouri, with office locations in Philadelphia and St. Louis. My telehealth-only practice supports clients across 40+ states through structured, compassionate care. Please note: I am not a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist/CSAT and do not provide diagnosis or primary treatment for sex addiction. I collaborate with trusted CSAT colleagues for that work and often serve as part of a coordinated care team for betrayed partners and couples.
