Andrea works with partners, couples, and marriages to be direct and improve communication, trust, commitment and general satisfaction within relationships. Andrea enjoys working with individuals, couples/partners and families (over 18 years old) to help them through rough patches or teaching tools to use at home to boost happiness, confidence, and commitment in relationships. She has facilitated relationships including dating, marriage (1-5 years together, 7-10 years together, or even 20-30 years together), and family combinations (parent/in-law, grandparents, co-parenting, roommates, sisters/brothers, or relatives) that want to get along better. Andrea holds therapy for individuals, around such topics as anxiety, depression, grief/loss, family relationship issues, work stress, and other things to see changes in life.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in topics for follow-up sessions.
Andrea utilizes individual therapy with collaborative dialogical, solution-focused, narrative therapy as well as other methods. She sees individuals with issues such as anxiety, depression, job stress, trauma, and relationship concerns or strain. She utilizes couples therapy with direct solution-focused aspects to focus on how to fix the problems. She has experience helping couples through trust, commitment, intimacy, connection, infidelity, and communication.
Andrea has been described as very direct, straightforward and honest. She thinks of therapy as a place to be able to look at ourselves and find out what one would like to change.
I love working with couples or partners who are married or in committed relationships. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel like they would like something better in the marriage, and don't always know how to improve the relationship or communication. I also see individuals who would like help to work towards their goals in life, or reduce symptoms such as anxiety. I enjoy seeing individuals for therapy as well, especially with anxiety and relationship issues or concerns within relationships.
