How Andrea applies therapy online

Andrea commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on practical skills, such as shifting negative thinking and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also brings Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements into work on relationships and closeness. EFT-style work helps people name their deeper feelings and needs so they can repair connection and improve communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Andrea collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and situation. She adapts techniques over time, checking in about what’s working and what needs changing.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins and flexibility for people on the go. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue consistent work toward goals.
