About Andrea
She uses short-term, goal-focused work to change unhelpful behaviors and build coping skills. Sessions often include skill practice and concrete steps clients can use between meetings. Andrea also addresses family and parenting concerns, grief, intimacy issues, and challenges tied to identity and life transitions.
Her background spans private practice, inpatient and outpatient care, crisis call centers, suicide hotlines, and work at military installations. That variety informs a flexible approach that adapts to different life stages and stressors. She has experience speaking to groups for psychoeducation as well as working one-on-one.
Andrea blends client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques to help people move forward. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift patterns of thought and behavior, and on Emotionally-Focused and Gottman ideas for relationship work. Jungian perspectives and mindfulness practices also appear when they fit a client's needs.
People who want clear goals, skills they can use day to day, and a collaborative therapist may find her style helpful. She offers services in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.
How Andrea’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Andrea uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients set their own goals and feel heard. This approach helps people clarify what matters to them and decide practical next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it tends to be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and habit change. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is aimed at understanding and shifting emotional responses in relationships and can help with intimacy, attachment, and conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Andrea will discuss goals and preferences and then recommend techniques from these approaches that match the client's needs. She frames therapy as a collaboration, adapting strategies over time if something isn’t working.
