Andrea works with a diverse caseload of clients, many of whom struggle with their anxiety, depression, anger, trauma responses, and relationship conflicts. Andrea takes a holistic approach to supporting these clients so they can manage their emotions at the highs and lows of their daily lives.
Andrea draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) in sessions with clients. She teaches clients how to pay attention to their thought patterns - and to do away with the thought patterns that are harmful or unhealthy, such as cognitive distortions. Clients also learn different coping skills, which they can bring home with them. Many of Andrea’s clients set mental health goals and work towards those goals with Andrea’s warm and encouraging support. They’ll also examine the health of all areas of life, including their physical, spiritual, and social wellbeing.
