About Andrew

Andrew Oxman is an MA, Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Massachusetts with 26 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, relationship and family issues, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue.

His way of working is collaborative and client-centered. Sessions focus on listening, talking through difficult moments, and developing practical steps to manage daily life. He often offers brief therapeutic assignments and resources clients can use between meetings.

Andrew draws on several therapeutic approaches to suit different situations. He uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships and how childhood bonds influence present difficulties. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that increase anxiety or low mood. He also brings existential and mindfulness perspectives to help people facing big life questions or grief.

Spiritual concerns can be included when a client wants that work. He also uses expressive tools like writing and role playing at times to help people try new ways of relating or communicating. Andrew does not treat addictions, sexual trauma, or eating disorders and recommends finding providers who specialize in those areas when relevant.

People who come for help often want clearer communication, healthier boundaries, better coping with change, or to process loss. He supports this practical, relational work while respecting each person's beliefs and preferences.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Andrew commonly integrates Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how they affect current connections, which helps when people want to change how they relate to partners or family members. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing small, concrete changes that reduce anxiety or lift mood.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. He will work together with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. That collaboration helps shape practical steps and homework that fit day-to-day life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can occur between commitments. Talk with him during the matching and scheduling steps about how sessions can best fit your routine and what kinds of exercises or resources will help you progress.
