She is great!

Reviewed November 2023

Andrea is very easy to relate to and is a great active listener. She lets me talk through my thought process yet offers another view if I seem fixated by a certain situation and struggling through feelings. I plan on continuing to booking with her in the future.

More about Andrea

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hi, I’m Andrea! I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience, and I’m here to help you navigate life’s ups and downs. Whether you’re an adult, a child, or part of a family, my goal is to create a supportive and caring space where you can feel truly heard.

I specialize in working with challenges like stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and more. If your faith is important to you, I also offer Faith-Based Therapy, blending spiritual principles with psychology for a holistic approach to healing.

Outside of work, I’m a total foodie who loves exploring new flavors, a music lover always adding to my playlist, and a big football fan (game day is serious business!).

My sessions are relaxed, down-to-earth, and judgment-free—you can just be yourself. Together, we’ll set meaningful goals and work toward creating the positive changes you’re looking for.

You don’t have to face life’s challenges alone—I’m here to help!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
