Sandra Knickerbocker, LMFT #108057, practices trauma-informed marriage and family therapy under the name Seeking Sanctuary at 2816 Adams Avenue in Normal Heights, San Diego. The Adams Avenue office sits in the heart of the 92116 commercial corridor, the same walkable stretch that hosts the annual Adams Avenue Street Fair and connects independent businesses from Felton Street to Kensington Drive. Knickerbocker's somatic and bodywork-informed approach to healing pairs naturally with the stress-reduction techniques at Zen Sanctuary, where therapeutic massage addresses the physical tension patterns that accompany trauma processing. She completed her master's at National University and transitioned into clinical work after a career in communication and technology, bringing a structured, goal-oriented lens to the therapeutic process. Her practice treats anxiety, depression, addiction, substance use disorders, gambling, adjustment disorders, LGBTQIA+ identity concerns, and complex trauma in individuals and couples. In-person sessions run at the Adams Avenue office on Thursdays and Saturdays, with telehealth available Tuesday through Friday for clients across California. Normal Heights sits directly above Mission Valley and five minutes north of Balboa Park, placing the practice within the central San Diego corridor where clients combine mental health care with physical conditioning at The Yard Gym Normal Heights as part of a broader recovery regimen. Individual sessions are $150 and couples sessions are $180, with a sliding-scale option and in-network coverage through select insurance providers. Knickerbocker's clinical framework centers on replacing long-standing behavioral patterns with evidence-based coping strategies calibrated to each client's pace and personal history.
