How Andrea works
She has supported individuals coping with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, anger, and trauma and abuse. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and Mindfulness techniques to help people stay present and reduce overwhelm.
Narrative therapy and solution-focused methods are part of her toolkit for reshaping stories and building practical strategies. Andrea often helps people dealing with relationship strain, family conflict, workplace stress, and life transitions. She also focuses on adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse.
She supports people working on self-esteem, self-love, and finding life purpose. In sessions Andrea aims for straightforward collaboration. She listens, reflects, and partners with each person to try methods that fit their life.
Progress is measured in practical changes and clearer coping skills, not rushed promises.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Andrea combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people feel heard and then change patterns that cause distress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client's pace to build trust and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for people who need tools for strong emotions and better interpersonal effectiveness. DBT offers practical techniques for managing intense feelings, tolerating distress, and improving relationships. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process; she will work with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues, phone sessions can be a good low-bandwidth option, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reminders and brief reflections. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life and to keep consistent momentum between sessions.
