About Andrea
Andrea trained in social work at the University of Kansas and has spent much of her career in the child welfare field. She has provided individual and family-based therapy and has experience with crisis counseling from time spent with the National Suicide Hotline. Her current professional work includes supervising therapists who support families involved in foster care.
Her style is client-centered and direct. She emphasizes listening first, then offering clear feedback and practical steps people can try. Sessions often blend approaches to match goals rather than sticking to a single method.
In sessions Andrea uses methods that help people identify unhelpful thought patterns, practice new coping skills, and reflect on life stories to find different perspectives. She aims to build a respectful, energetic rapport that encourages honest conversation and steady progress.
Through the platform Andrea responds to messages and aims to be approachable and timely. Prospective clients are invited to consider what they want from therapy and begin with a short matching questionnaire to schedule a first appointment.
How Andrea’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what’s said, and helps set goals that matter to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice the present moment and use simple attention practices to manage stress and anxiety.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Andrea will work with each person to choose methods that fit their needs and preferences. She often blends techniques so sessions match current concerns, whether that means learning coping skills, changing thought patterns, or re-framing personal stories.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or offering an option when video is not preferred. These practical benefits help people try therapy without rearranging every part of their schedule.
