About Andrea
Her style is collaborative and client-centered. She works with clients to set goals together and uses a solution-focused, strength-based approach. Andrea can offer direction, advice, education, or support as needed, but she emphasizes the client as the expert in their own life.
Over 29 years Andrea has worked in clinics and community settings with people facing addiction, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, parenting and relationship strains, grief, and life transitions. That background shapes a flexible approach that emphasizes coping skills and gradual change. Sessions tend to focus on what can be done now and next.
Andrea uses elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused methods when they fit a client's goals. These tools are used to reduce distress, improve coping, and identify small practical steps forward. The work is paced to the client's readiness.
She welcomes people who want straightforward help with mood, behavior, or life changes, including issues tied to pregnancy and childbirth. To begin, visitors are encouraged to follow the site's process to match with a therapist and schedule a time to talk.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Andrea often draws on client-centered therapy to make sessions focused on each person's priorities. This approach means the conversation centers on the client's goals and experience, with the therapist offering support, reflection, and practical suggestions to move forward.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by building coping skills and clearer problem-solving steps.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels comfortable, then adapt methods so they fit the client's needs. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and more options for scheduling. Online work can make brief check-ins simpler and reduce travel time.
