About Andrew
He uses practical conversation to identify what is getting in the way of daily functioning and connection. Sessions focus on concrete steps clients can try between meetings, and on noticing small shifts that matter. Andrew adapts his approach to each person rather than following a single script.
His work draws from several common counseling approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation focused on the person’s goals and perspective. Emotionally-Focused ideas guide work on attachment and relational patterns when relationships are a concern.
Andrew is a Christian and is willing to include a Biblical, Christ-centered perspective in therapy when that matches a client’s values. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and steady support as people make changes. He describes therapy as a collaborative process where the therapist and client set the pace.
With six years of experience including internship and Licensed Associate Counselor time before full LPC status, Andrew brings both hands-on practice and a focus on practical problem solving. If someone wants a direct, values-aware approach to anxiety, relationships, or loneliness, he tailors sessions to what that person needs.
Approaches that translate to online counseling
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and following the client's goals; it helps people feel heard and shape sessions around what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors together and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, panic, and unhelpful thinking.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide whether a CBT focus, a client-centered style, or a blend makes the most sense. Goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs guide that choice rather than a single predetermined method.
Online therapy can make fitting counseling into a busy life easier, for example by reducing travel time and allowing sessions around work or family schedules. Since specific session formats are not listed here, confirm the current session options before booking to know how meetings are held. Many people find that meeting remotely lets them stay consistent with shorter check-ins or full sessions while juggling other responsibilities.
