Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions
Andrea integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy into her online practice to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathy, active listening, and supporting the individual's own goals, helping people build self-awareness, confidence, and stronger relationships. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and addictive behaviors. She also uses elements of emotionally-focused therapy when relationship and attachment issues are central, helping partners and families recognize emotional patterns and strengthen connection.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Andrea works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions over time so the work stays aligned with progress and changing priorities.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule consistent appointments and maintain momentum between sessions. For many people, working with licensed professionals in these formats increases accessibility and supports steady progress while balancing life demands.
