About Roger
Roger Andrews is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with 13 years of practice. He focuses on common household and life stresses: anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. He offers help to adults who are managing these challenges while juggling family responsibilities.
His approach blends client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). That means sessions begin by listening to what matters most to the person in front of him. From there he and the client work together on practical steps and experiments that change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Roger describes his manner as respectful and nonjudgmental. He helps people set clear goals and builds a plan that reflects their daily realities. Sessions typically involve talking through problems, testing alternatives, and practicing new ways of coping between meetings.
Over more than a decade, he has supported people facing substance use concerns and serious mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. He also has experience with adjustment after life changes and trauma-related distress. His background in social work informs a focus on real-world supports as well as therapy work.

How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and what they do
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience. The therapist follows what matters most to the client, reflects it back, and helps the client identify their own goals. This approach is useful when someone needs a steady, respectful place to sort through difficult feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Sessions often include practicing short experiments and using simple tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, or address patterns that contribute to conflict at home.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Roger will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can be adjusted over time as progress and priorities change.
The practical benefit of meeting online is that therapy can fit more easily into a weekday evening or a work break. Online sessions often make it simpler to attend from wherever is quieter or more convenient, and they can reduce travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm what formats are available before booking. The focus is on making therapy manageable alongside parenting and household responsibilities.
