My treatment methods

Grief Therapy

What I've learned is that any type of loss (a loved one, a job change, a move, etc) can affect the way we manage our day to day lives. Grief therapy creates a safe space to express your feelings because everyone grieves differently and there is no one right way! Whatever you are feeling is normal and okay. We will develop coping strategies to help you get back on track!

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have been using CBT since 1993! We will improve your understanding of how your own behavioral patterns and unwanted sometimes negative thoughts play a central role in how you feel and function everyday! Understanding your own thought processes will make you stronger, develop healthier self-esteem and increase your happiness!

Family Therapy

I am a huge advocate for family therapy! Often you alone can be the only one in therapy to illicit changes in your family system. Family therapy aims to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships among family members. It can be helpful in many situations that affect family relationships and dynamics, such as financial problems, marital issues, communication breakdown, conflict over one or more issues, and life transitions to name a few.

Thanks for providing your expertise and giving individual tasks for each of us to better communicate and avoid my overreacting. I feel comfortable bringing up concerns that are important to me and for you pointing out how I can better react in the short term when I don't think about consequences of my temper and rapid decision-making without input from Susan.

It was an excellent platform for my sister and me to get our feelings out in a safe and positive way. Andrea listens and responds effectively. We both liked her.

We reviewed doctors and felt she was a good fit. After our session we enjoyed her demeanor and feel comfortable with continuing on.
