About Andrea
Andrea Mitchell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 16 years of clinical experience. She draws on practical, person-centered methods to help people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and relationship struggles. Andrea uses clear, down-to-earth language in sessions so conversations feel direct and useful.
Her approach emphasizes building a stronger sense of self. She helps people notice patterns coming from early experiences and then practice different ways to respond.
How Andrea works
That can look like learning skills to manage strong emotions, changing unhelpful thoughts, or naming needs and saying them clearly to others. Andrea combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. She tailors these tools to each person rather than following a single script.
Sessions are conversational and focused on practical steps a person can try between meetings. Her background includes growing up in an alcoholic home, which shaped her interest in attachment, abandonment, codependency, and addiction issues. That life experience informs how she listens and the kinds of strategies she recommends for healing self-esteem and managing shame and guilt.
Andrea supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, coping with life changes, ADHD, communication problems, control issues, and mood or personality concerns. She also helps those working through divorce, separation, and recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. The work aims to move people from merely surviving toward a more steady, self-directed life.

Online support options
How Andrea’s approaches work online
Andrea often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with their values. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on processing past hurts so memories and reactions have less hold over day-to-day life.Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then combine methods accordingly. The plan can change over time as needs shift and new skills are practiced.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and practicing communication skills. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging offer quick access for brief support, homework check-ins, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
