How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy

Andrea uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a solution-focused emphasis. A solution-focused approach concentrates on current strengths and small, practical goals. It helps when people want clear steps to reduce stress, manage mood, or handle everyday problems. Cognitive strategies are often paired with that focus to help notice unhelpful thinking and try alternative responses, which can ease anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea collaborates with each person to figure out what methods match their goals and preferences. She will check in regularly and adjust plans based on what is helping and what feels realistic for daily life.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins around work or caregiving. It also gives flexibility for sessions that focus on skill practice, planning, and problem solving without requiring long commutes.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
