Andre Wielemaker
Hey! I'm Dr. Andre, a licensed clinical psychologist. I provide therapy for a range of concerns. No matter what you are facing, I strive to understand your situation and help you find relief and clarity. I aim to provide a genuine and trusting relationship and a judgement free atmosphere to explore the concerns you are facing!
I completed a BA in Psychology, an MA in Clinical Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, a 12 month internship followed by a 12 month post-doctoral fellowship, and multiple state and national board exams.

First session
In the first session I will conduct an intake assessment meaning we will cover why you are seeking treatment and your background history including presenting concerns and symptoms. During the first session I will orient you to the therapy process and clarify any concerns, and answer questions! We will discuss any scheduling and finances if not already done so.
Strengths
I bring a direct, practical, and collaborative approach to therapy. I am comfortable asking difficult questions, identifying patterns that may be contributing to problems, and helping clients turn insight into concrete change. I also work to create a space where clients can be honest without feeling judged or pressured to present themselves a certain way. My goal is to balance support with accountability so that sessions feel productive, focused, and relevant to what is actually happening in your life.
Ideal clients
I specialize in helping adult men and couples manage dysfunctional life patterns, relationship challenges, and the stress that comes from feeling stuck in ways of thinking, behaving, or relating that no longer work. I work best with clients who genuinely want to see change and are willing to take an active role in the process. You do not need to have everything figured out before starting therapy, but openness, honesty, and a willingness to look at yourself are important. My ideal clients want more than a place to vent. They want to better understand what is happening, identify the patterns contributing to their difficulties, and do the work necessary to create meaningful and lasting change in their lives and relationships.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I strive to provide a genuine and trusting relationship and a judgement free atmosphere to explore the concerns you are facing, I use CBT to collaborate with you to find solutions for your problems that are resulting from behaviors, thoughts, and emotions.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
For individuals hoping for a short term goal oriented approach, I utilize a solutions focused treatment model to help you find an alternative way of living that is better for you and your situation.
Psychodynamic
For individuals experiencing long term problematic relationship patterns, I utilize a psychodynamically oriented approach to help you explore early experiences and how they may have contribute to mal-adaptive ways of living in the present.
Couples Counseling
*Limited availability for couples* Due to complication with insurance, I am only able to take on a certain amount of insurance based couples at a time. Cash pay rate may be available. I help couples who are facing relationship challenges. Using a blend of communication skills training, the Gottman Method, and practical strategies, I work with couples to improve their connection, resolve conflicts, and enhance their overall relationship satisfaction. My approach includes customized interventions and ongoing professional development to ensure I provide the most effective support. With my guidance, couples learn to communicate more openly, address underlying issues, and develop stronger, more fulfilling relationships.
