Andrew Newhouse, LMFT

Andrew Newhouse is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and trauma-related concerns. He speaks plain about problems and listens with patience so clients can find steady next steps. If you are feeling overwhelmed by life changes or relationship strain, he offers a calm space to talk and make practical plans.

He draws on 14 years of clinical work and personal experience with loss to shape his approach. That history gave him a clear sense of how grief and major life changes can affect everyday functioning. In sessions he uses straightforward methods to reduce symptoms and build coping skills rather than long lectures or jargon.

Andrew uses client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and test more helpful ones. When trauma is a concern he brings trauma-focused strategies into sessions in a paced, careful way.

He has a background working with people dealing with substance use, depression, interpersonal and family problems, and parenting stress. He also supports those coping with guilt, shame, isolation, impulsivity, and questions of life purpose.

Andrew is licensed as an LMFT in Hawaii, Florida, and South Carolina and practices from Hawaii. He offers sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How Andrew’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Andrew uses client-centered work to follow each person's priorities. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters, and shaping goals based on the client's own values and needs. It helps when people are unsure where to begin or want a therapist who adapts to them.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, or unhelpful habits by teaching concrete techniques for changing patterns and testing new behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then blend methods as needed. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay useful and focused on practical change.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the therapist's biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people join from different locations when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt session tools to match each person's goals and daily routine.
