About Andrea
Andrea Brown is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 17 years of experience in the mental health field. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, anger, and coping with life changes.
Andrea has worked in residential settings, partial care, outpatient clinics, crisis services, and in-home programs. That range means she has seen a broad span of needs and levels of difficulty. She has particular experience with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, and trauma, and she has also worked with substance use and intellectual or developmental disabilities.
Her approach is person-centered and integrative. She starts from where the client is and uses treatment methods that match the situation. The methods she uses most often include cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing.
Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals. Clients can expect conversations that notice patterns of thought and behavior, try small experiments or skills between sessions, and reflect on what helps in daily life. Andrea aims to build a working relationship that allows both challenge and support when it is helpful.
People seeking help for anger will find that anger is listed among the concerns she addresses. If you are unsure how her style fits your needs, the initial steps are a short questionnaire and a first session to see how you want to proceed.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working from the client's own concerns. In practice that means the therapist follows the person's priorities and helps clarify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of emotional triggers.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Andrea will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She brings together techniques rather than relying on just one model, and the plan can change as progress is made.
The practical benefit of working online is that sessions can fit into a busy week more easily. Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it simpler to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid commute time, and maintain continuity of care when life gets in the way. Licensed professionals can use these options to help clients practice skills between meetings and to keep steady momentum toward their goals.
