Andrea is wonderful. Most of the time I just need to get it out of my system so she just lets me go but interjects to keep me on track or steer me into learning something more about myself. I really cannot say enough good things about her. I feel lighter after talking to her and can feel myself let my guard down and be honest with her without judgement.

More about Andrea

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • LISW

I am a licensed independent social worker in Ohio with 17 years of professional work experience. My areas of of interest and experience include maternal mental health and wellness, support during the postpartum and "new parent" period, and foster care and adoption issues. Additionally, I have experience in helping clients with trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, coping with stress and anxiety, coping with life changes, and many other areas. I work collaboratively with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment, and to create client-centered goals. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process, and I look forward to meeting with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
