About Me
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with 6 years experience, providing direct mental health and behavioral counseling. I hold a certification in LGBT Health Policy & Practice that shines my experience with LGBTQ+, non-binary, and gender non-conforming youth and adults. I am trained in several evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness & Stress Reduction techniques. I have 4 years experience working with artists from varying creative domains, providing Mindfulness strategies to reduce creative slumps, blocks, and other creative struggles.
My therapeutic style is direct, but warm and down-to-earth. I incorporate perspectives and tools from many styles of therapy so that I can tailor a costumed therapeutic experience together with my clients. Therapy is an important space in which you wish to be seen, heard, understood and validated. I tend to provide my clients with modern holistic practices to build a new way of living with a deeper insight to disrupt unhelpful patterns and create more benefiting behaviors. I aim to provide my clients with clear direction, genuine honesty, and a nonjudgmental space to divulge their thoughts and feelings in the manner that feels most comfortable for you.
Thank you for taking this next step toward building a better mind for a better tomorrow. I sincerely do look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Andrew Carroll. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
This has been a very positive experience
Andrew has been a great help already, he has worked with me the way I work best and am looking forward to continuing to work with Andrew - as I navigate sometimes difficult issues in a manageable and positive way.
I had gone through a few therapists before I found him, but he was the perfect match. He is just like me, just like a future me. I look up to him with so much respect as I would an older brother. I trust him not only because he’s likable but because he’s open, honest, and the most transparent I’ve seen a therapist from the START.
He's great! He's funny and helps assess my issues in a way that makes them easier to acknowledge and approach. He'll treat your issues seriously without making them sound so serious that they're too daunting to talk about. I look forward to my appointments!
Andrew is very compassionate about his job and provides the expertise necessary to make you feel welcomed but also supported. No topic is off limits, as it should be. He also makes you feel very comfortable speaking about any kind of issue you’re facing; good, bad, and ugly. Would highly recommend Andrew for anyone going through a hard time, or just for a better understanding of yourself and your worth.
Very relatable therapist. I like his how candid and forward he is.
Andrew has easily been one of the best therapist I’ve had. He’s caring, assertive, gentle, knowledgeable and over all one of the easiest people I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I’m so excited to continue with him.
I’ve seen a few different therapists over the years, but Andrew has been the best one yet. He listens to my concerns without judgement and is thoughtful but direct in his responses. Andrew makes me feel heard and helped. Though he offers suggestions, he is never forceful in them, allowing me to make the best possible decision for myself and feeling more confident. Thank you for providing such a safe place for me, Andrew.
I love my therapies with Mr. Andrew Carroll since he listens, and is able to provide me with both a direct, and caring approach to my counseling.
I have been recommending him to my acquaintances and how amazing he is.
I just started with him, and from day one he has been wonderful in helping me with my issues from childhood, being gay, and emotional voids.
Andrew is phenomenal, he will make sure you feel understood
Andrew is incredible! He’s smart, understanding, an excellent listener and gives advice that is both specific to the issue at hand and can help in other areas of life. He’s able to connect the dots quickly to provide the most out of our sessions by providing spot on insight and advice.
The best counselor I have had in a long time!
Andrew was a tremendous help in navigating a complicated time in my life. He helped me to unknot some old problems and look at current ones in a productive manner.
Amazing guy and very knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone in need of guidance or support.
Andrew has been absolutely amazing, knowledgeable, experienced, and funny throughout the time I've had sessions with him. I felt completely comfortable talking with him, sharing all of my experiences and feelings as we progressed through my self development journey. He understood me so well and was exceptionally empathetic. I feel extremely fortunate to have had him as my therapist and will forever be grateful for everything he has done to help me become my best self.
Andrew is the best. He listens to me and offers me support in a knowledgeable and empathetic manner. He also know how to make me laugh when I cry, which helps snap me out of my darker episodes. I’m so happy to be working towards al better mental health with him!
Andrew listened closely and carefully all throughout my time with him. He focused on my personal therapy goals and also challenged me when I needed it. I left feeling much more empowered.
Hes a great counselor
Andrew is fantastic. Very relatable, and he creates an environment where opening up is easy and comfortable.
Andrew is compassionate, understanding and continues to hold me accountable to my goals as we work together to strive towards a healthier future. I will always recommend him.
I have only had a few sessions with Andrew, and he is so empowering. He is extremely safe to talk to, very open to all of the conversations I felt were “weird” at first, and he is wonderful at asking questions and helping me realize the positive Witness that still lives inside me, trying to help and encourage me. Thank you, Andrew!
Andrew comes off as a very friendly and approachable individual who actively listens and has insight into issues that are my presenting issues
I can’t recommend Andrew enough. He truly is such a special person who genuinely cares about helping people.
I've only had a few sessions with Andrew and I can say that with such little time with him, I've had such eye opening moments and advice that has given me hope and encouragement to better myself and I look forward to future sessions.
Andrew is, above all, a very compassionate person. He has a tremendous sense of empathy. One cannot help but feel very comfortable when talking to him about their mental health. During my toughest times he has always been able to bring me a bit closer back to sanity. Furthermore, he also is very good at giving tools that can allow the patient to survive and thrive as they embark into the outside world after a session.
He's helped me a lot, and he's really cool.
Andrew is incredible at listening, understanding, very patient and offers brilliant insight into all of my mental struggles and genuinely cares about helping me overcome all obstacles faced in my life and works hard to help me bring out the best version of myself.
Awesome therapist and a very understanding and likable person. Easy to deal with and very accommodating.
Andrew keeps things real and doesn't beat around the bush. I have felt better, more confidence, clear and relieved when I leave even our short interactions. He keeps it fun and light hearted and has helped me open up which is very hard for me to do usually.
He has been very kind and funny and helpful. He is very professional and you can tell that he was made for this job.
He's very good at what he does!
Two sessions in with Andrew and I feel like I'm talking to a long time friend. He made me comfortable and not judged right away, making it easy for me to put my thoughts, feelings, and not-so-healthy habits out on the table so he can assess them and help me process. I'm excited to continue my journey into therapy with him by my side.
