About Andrea
Andrea Vadnais is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Oklahoma. She has five years of clinical experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and loss. Andrea emphasizes a straightforward, supportive approach that centers the person's own strengths and choices.
Andrea uses clear, practical steps in sessions. She helps people understand how past relationships affect current feelings and behavior. She also teaches tools to reduce anxious thinking and to cope after traumatic events or losses.
Background and approach
Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to find and change unhelpful thoughts. Trauma-focused methods are used when painful experiences need careful attention.
Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules. Andrea describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client sets goals and she helps map ways to reach them. People who contact Andrea can expect short-term strategies for managing stress and longer conversations about change when needed.
Her style is direct but compassionate, with a focus on practical tools and rebuilding everyday functioning.
Approaches that translate to online therapy
Andrea uses attachment-based ideas to look at how earlier relationships shape current emotions and responses. This approach helps when patterns in relationships, trust, or connection are part of the worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so anxiety and stress become more manageable. Trauma-focused methods are used when someone needs careful work through past painful events and their effects on daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Andrea will talk with the person about goals, symptoms, and preferences, then recommend techniques that fit. That plan can change over time as progress is made or needs shift.
Online formats offer flexibility across different days and routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, step-by-step homework, or quick coping reminders between longer sessions. These options let therapy fit into work, childcare, or school schedules while keeping continuity of care.
