Hi, I’m Andrea.
I have always been curious about people, relationships, and how we make sense of our lives and move toward greater fulfillment.
My style is warm and collaborative, with room for humor and honest conversation. I’ve been told I’m direct and perceptive with clients.
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, grief, parenting, infertility, adoption, relationship difficulties, shame and self-criticism, life transitions, family-of-origin dynamics, career pressures, and relationships impacted by addiction.
My approach is tailored to each client. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a significant influence, as I help clients approach the different parts of themselves with curiosity and compassion rather than judgment.
I’m especially drawn to couples work. Informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Relational Life Therapy (RLT), I help partners understand recurring patterns, communicate more honestly, and build greater connection and intimacy.
I believe strongly in the therapeutic relationship and want therapy to be a space where you can show up honestly, feel accepted as you are, and find room for meaningful change.
