More about Andrea

  • 28 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am dually licensed in Colorado and Florida with 28 years of experience as a LCSW. I have worked with clients to address stress and anxiety, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, life transitions, and depression. I am a Trauma-Sensitive Heartmath® Certified Practitioner and have been trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) which I have used with clients who’ve experienced a wide range of traumas. I believe that an underlying root of many problems humans face is a dysregulated nervous system that causes the mind, body, and emotions to become overwhelmed. In response, we either shut down or experience too much angst and can no longer confidently hear and follow our own voice. Along with working to understand your challenges from your unique point of view, I will support you in learning how to regulate your nervous system so that you can have better access to constructive thoughts and emotions, restore your body to a state of health and well-being, and make decisions in your life from a place of self-confidence and empowerment. There is nothing off limits in our discussion as all aspects of self are welcome. You are brave and courageous for reaching out for support, and I am honored to be part of your healing journey. Let me share in the privilege of walking beside you to reflect more deeply and authentically, understand yourself and your gifts and challenges more clearly, find solutions that come from within you (which means they will work best), and feel restored and reconnected.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
