How Andrea’s approaches fit online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. Andrea uses this to understand what matters most to a person and to shape sessions around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and low mood.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Andrea works with each person to decide which methods match their goals and comfort level, and she adjusts techniques over time as needs change. That teamwork helps shape a plan that fits daily life and what someone wants to achieve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and practicing communication skills. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day and to get support between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility so people can access therapy in ways that fit their schedule and routine.
