About Sandhya Oaks
Hi, I’m Sandhya!
I have a zeal for life and find myself coming more alive as I awaken to my faith, the passions God has given to me, and my story. The story I live is one of courage, defiant hope, curiosity, and great adventure. I am fiercely committed to seeing people experience healing, restoration, and LIVING into the FREEDOM, that was meant for them.
Sandhya’s calling is found where faith, adoption, story work, and identity connect.
Sandhya is a Ministry Leader, Story Coach, and Spiritual Director. She has more than 17 years of combined experience in campus and church ministry. Sandhya currently walks closely with ministry leaders, South Asian leaders, and Adult Adoptees.
Sandhya is certified in Narrative Focused Trauma Care through the Allender Center, and her expertise is found at the intersection of Grief Care, Adoption, Identity, and Soul Care. She loves hosting retreats and creating experiences that invite healing and restoration.
She is fiercely committed to providing hope and healing to a broken world and has been featured by TEDx, Family Life Ministry, Biola Seminary, and Denver Seminary.
In her free time, she loves cooking Indian food, spending time gathering around the table, and playing pickleball.
