Sandra Bremner-Dexter, MD
With over two decades of clinical experience, Sandra supports individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and bipolar disorder. She specializes in helping children and adolescents navigate behavioral challenges, school avoidance, and developmental differences, and offers tailored support to parents and caregivers. Her clinical approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with medication management, fostering progress through both therapeutic insight and medical treatment when appropriate. Sandra is particularly passionate about working with individuals affected by PTSD and trauma, as well as those coping with postpartum depression and anxiety. She brings a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach to her work with adoptive and foster families, individuals with autism spectrum disorders, and those experiencing complex life transitions.
Sandra is also experienced in addressing the needs of military veterans and individuals living with developmental disabilities. Outside of her clinical work, Sandra enjoys gardening, sailing, knitting, and playing the fiddle—activities that reflect her creative spirit and appreciation for balance. She brings the same care and dedication to her practice as she does to her personal pursuits.
