About me

Hello and welcome to my profile! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Missouri and have been helping individuals seek life solutions for over 10 years. I enjoy helping clients work on a variety of issues but am especially passionate about helping women overcome issues related to anxiety and life changes (relationship, motherhood, menopause, etc).

Methods that I have found particularly effective for clients in therapy include but are not limited to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Exposure and Response Prevention. For couples and relationship therapy I draw from the Gottman Method to guide the progression.

Each client is unique and therapy is planned around the client’s needs and goals. I feel that trust in the therapeutic relationship is the basis for our work together and we will start out investing time to build that relationship.

I am hopeful that through a strong therapeutic alliance and evidence-based methods we can make excellent progress toward your goals. Let’s work together to find joy and value in your life that you never thought possible!

Was an absolute pleasure getting to meet and talk with Andrea. She helped guide me through a very dark time in my life and encouraged me to see the light of life through Christ. She has been a great influence on helping me build my relationship with Christ and given me the tools to overcome my fears and anxiety

Very understanding to situations. Not judgmental

Andrea is the best therapist I've had in my 15 years of therapy experience. She listens, adjusts her protocol based on client needs, and is incredibly empathetic!

She's great at her job, feel comfortable opening up to her. I don't know where'd I be without her. She got me through things that were extremely tough for me to handle alone.
