Dr. Sandra Schatz is a Clinical Psychologist who works with soldiers at Fort Hood Army Base.

Her days are spent conducting psychological testing, individual therapy, and group therapy for problems ranging from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to adjusting from being away from home for the first time.

Personally, Sandra’s mother recently passed away -- in June 2019.

Originally from South Dakota, Sandra lived in San Diego, on Long Island, and several places in between before arriving in Texas three years ago. Sandra was reaching her shelf-life in Wichita, Kansas when the call of a civilian job in a military environment where there is no snow became irresistible.

When she is not working, Sandra is an active member of Toastmasters and plays in a kickball league.

In this episode of Heart to Heart with Michael she shares with Michael stories about how she helps soldiers as they deal with grief and post-traumatic stress disorder. She also shares how her own feelings about grief have changed since she has lost her mother. She also explains how families are affected when a loved one in the military is deployed to a war-torn country and how returning home can cause strained relationships.
