About Andrea
Dr. Andrea Burgio-Murphy helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem problems, attention concerns, and major life changes. She also supports clients facing trauma, grief, intimacy and relationship challenges, eating or sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, career questions, and mood conditions such as bipolar disorder.
Her work includes a focus on young adult issues and personality disorder-related concerns. She is a clinical psychologist licensed in Georgia with 21 years of professional experience.
How Andrea works
She favors an approach that pairs research-backed methods with psychodynamic insight. That means sessions may address current skills and habits while also looking back a bit to see what repeatedly gets in the way. Her style is collaborative and goal-focused.
Conversations are practical and aimed at clear, reachable steps. She tailors each plan to the person in front of her rather than using one-size-fits-all techniques. In sessions she combines problem-solving with attention to emotional patterns.
The goal is to build coping tools and then practice using them in real life. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion throughout the process. Dr.
Burgio-Murphy frames change as a joint effort. She offers coaching-style guidance when helpful, and works to empower clients to meet their goals. The overall aim is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and better daily functioning.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
She blends evidence-based techniques with psychodynamic-informed work. Evidence-based techniques focus on practical skills such as managing worry, improving sleep, organizing attention, and changing unhelpful behavior patterns; these methods aim to produce measurable changes in day-to-day functioning. Psychodynamic-informed work looks at repeating emotional patterns and how past experiences shape current reactions, helping people understand what blocks new coping strategies.Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and life demands and together decide which approaches to try. Sessions may shift over time as needs change and new skills are practiced.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and guided skill practice. Phone sessions can work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging offer quick, flexible ways to reflect between longer appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue care when in-person meetings are not convenient.
