Background and approach

Andrea uses methods that match what a person needs in the moment. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to challenge unhelpful thinking and on solution-focused tools to set clear, reachable goals. Narrative techniques help people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves and their lives.

Trauma work is also part of her practice. Andrea supports people who have experienced post-traumatic stress and other trauma-related concerns by moving at the person’s pace and building safety and regulation skills first. She welcomes honest, open conversation about any topic that matters to the client.

Over the years Andrea has worked with a wide range of challenges tied to work, relationships, identity, and life purpose. She invites clients to explore choices that come from their own values and strengths. Her goal is for people to feel more grounded, more confident, and better able to make decisions that fit their life.

How Andrea's Approaches Fit Online Care

Andrea often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, mood concerns, and coping with life changes. Motivational Interviewing is another tool she uses to help people find internal reasons to change and to build commitment step by step.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Andrea will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that match those needs. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the person move forward.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this kind of work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill teaching and deeper exchanges. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients check in between sessions, use shorter coaching-style exchanges, and keep momentum on goals. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or busy days.
