Andrea is very helpful. She's kind, understanding, and non-judgmental. She meets me where I am while also challenging me to think about things I normally avoid out of fear.

“To finally move on and start something new, you must release the unchangeable past and embrace your future”
Releasing your past and taking steps toward your future can be frightening yet exciting and I’m here to support you. Hello, my name is Dr. Andrea R. Gourdine. I have a PhD and master’s in Developmental Psychology, as well as a master’s degree in Marriage, Couple, and Family Counseling. I am thrilled to assist you in discovering hope and inner confidence while you overcome your challenges of low self-esteem and lack of motivation. Additionally, I have experience working with clients on anxiety, stress, suicidal ideation, anger management, and relationship conflict. My goal is to help you manage your symptoms, maintain balance, and discover a new, joyous outlook on life. In addition to individual therapy, I have also conducted couples, family, and group therapy sessions in private practice and school settings.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. It is my goal to provide the best level of care to you, while also challenging faulty thinking patterns in an effort to help you discover and become the healthy person you desire to be. Small changes like creating new daily routines, introducing meditation, or focusing on the present are just a few steps I suggest to clients to help them to get on the right track.
My therapeutic approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused, and Person-Centered counseling. I tailor my approach specifically to clients’ needs. The most important part about your therapeutic journey is making progress towards the goals for yourself so you can embrace your future. I am here to assist you in your progress toward your goals.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
