Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Flexible Care Options
Andrea brings several evidence-informed approaches to online work to address emotional, relational, and life-transition concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and take committed action toward a meaningful life - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and challenges around motivation and purpose. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of connection and early relationships to improve current intimacy, trust, and relational stability - it is helpful for attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and relationship difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can support those struggling with intense emotions, self-destructive patterns, or relationship conflicts.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Andrea works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains responsive and goal-oriented.
