She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, parenting, and other family-related struggles that affect everyday life. Andrea helps people who are coping with depression, grief, trauma, anger, and changes in mood or routine.
She uses several approaches in her work, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered methods, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, trying small behavior changes, and practicing techniques to manage strong emotions. Andrea pays attention to how past family experiences and attachment patterns can show up in present relationships.
Parents and adult children often contact her about communication problems, codependency, parenting strain, and conflicts that revolve around family roles. She also addresses substance use concerns and problems with sleep, eating, or motivation that come with mood shifts. Her style is practical and focused on what can change between sessions.
In meetings she may introduce mindfulness exercises, ACT strategies about values and committed action, or CBT tools for noticing and shifting unhelpful thoughts. Motivational interviewing can help when people are unsure about changing behaviors like drinking or drug use. The work usually mixes conversation with concrete exercises to try between sessions.

How sessions work
How ACT, CBT and client-centered work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck and choose small committed steps that match what matters to them. This can be useful for parenting strain, anxiety, and managing family conflict.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches concrete skills for changing anxious thinking, improving sleep or eating patterns, and reducing depressive patterns. Sessions often include homework like thought records or behavior experiments.
Client-centered therapy concentrates on what matters to the person in front of the therapist. It uses reflective listening and collaborative planning to clarify goals and build motivation. This approach supports people sorting through relationship or attachment concerns at their own pace.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together with the client decide which methods to try first. That collaboration helps match techniques to parenting demands, relationship goals, or substance use changes.
