Aundrea "Andie" Moss , LCSW

Aundrea "Andie" Moss is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Illinois who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, grief, self-esteem struggles, and relationship or intimacy issues. She makes reaching out feel like a manageable first step and focuses on being someone people can talk to easily.

Andie draws on ten years of experience across hospitals, residential and outpatient treatment centers, and home-based services. She earned a Master of Social Work degree from Loyola University of Chicago and has worked with people facing co-occurring disorders, mood concerns, and challenges tied to trauma and abuse. Her background also includes supporting people through end-of-life situations and working with children affected by abuse and neglect in prior roles.

In sessions she takes a patient, empathic stance and centers each person's strengths. She practices client-centered methods that let people set the pace and direction of their work. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness skills, Motivational Interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to address practical problems and emotional patterns.

Andie focuses on helping people build coping skills they can use day to day. That can mean learning tools to manage anxiety, developing healthier habits around substances and eating, or working through grief and caregiver stress. She aims to help people find small, realistic changes that reduce distress.

Her style is straightforward and supportive. She encourages collaboration on goals and adapts approaches to fit where someone is in their life. People who want a steady, compassionate guide through change may find her approach useful.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Aundrea uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person's goals and perspective. This approach means sessions follow what matters most to the person and build on existing strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with strong emotions and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what is helpful. Clients and the therapist work together to decide whether to emphasize skills training, problem solving, mindfulness, or motivational techniques.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when lower bandwidth or no camera is preferred, and chat or text can be a shorter check-in or a way to keep momentum between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or mobility limits while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
