Hello! I'm Andrea, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts with approximately 15 years of experience in the field. My approach to therapy is collaborative, meaning we will both share our thoughts and ideas as we decide how we will work together. While it's important for me to guide you through the therapy process, I firmly believe that you know yourself best. My goal is for you to learn to trust yourself through therapy and feel equipped with the tools you need to navigate your challenges with confidence when you're ready to leave therapy.
I want my clients to feel comfortable being their authentic selves without fear of judgment. Having experienced therapy myself, I understand the importance of working with a clinician who provides a safe space and fosters a collaborative problem-solving environment.
Throughout my career, I have focused on helping people with anxiety and stress, relationship issues, family concerns, low self-esteem, trauma-related symptoms, depression, and substance abuse issues. My counseling style is friendly and laid back, but also engaging. I ask questions to encourage you to think about things in new ways, and I like to insert humor when appropriate. My main therapeutic approaches include CBT, DBT, solution-focused therapies, and mindfulness. I tailor my approach to what works best for you and frequently check in to see what is and isn't working.
I offer one-hour sessions via telehealth and have a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs. If you're ready to start this journey together, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
