About Andrea
Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 29 years of behavioral health experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and parenting concerns, and other life challenges. Andrea helps people set practical goals and make steady changes.
Andrea uses a client-centered, solution-focused style. She collaborates with each person to set clear goals and to choose steps that feel doable. She can offer direction, information, coaching, or education when that helps move things forward.
Her background includes work in a range of behavioral health settings. Over nearly three decades she has supported people through trauma and abuse, grief, anger, mood disorders including bipolar, and substance use issues. She also addresses life transitions such as separation and divorce, pregnancy and childbirth, and career shifts.
Andrea draws on specific methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to help manage anxiety, mood, and addictive behaviors. Motivational interviewing can help when someone is weighing a change, and solution-focused work keeps sessions action-oriented. These approaches are used to support coping skills, reduce unhelpful patterns, and build clearer routines.
Sessions emphasize straightforward conversation and practical steps. Andrea treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and supports them in testing different ways to solve problems. She also works on communication, codependency, control issues, money stress, and recovering from guilt and shame.
If someone prefers to work with a clinician who focuses on concrete goals and steady progress, Andrea offers that practical approach and long experience in behavioral health.
How sessions work
How Andrea uses therapy approaches online
Andrea commonly blends cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness and solution-focused work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build calm. Solution-focused methods keep sessions practical by identifying small steps and recent successes that can be repeated.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Andrea will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That discussion guides what happens in sessions and what homework or practice might be useful between meetings.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy day and keeping continuity during life changes.

Online sessions can make it easier to schedule regular check-ins, allow shorter or more frequent contacts when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits into everyday life.
