About Andrea
Dr. Andrea Burgio-Murphy is a clinical psychologist licensed in Georgia with 21 years of professional experience. She works with adults and young people who face stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and anger. She also helps with ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and problems with sleep or eating.
Her approach combines evidence-based techniques with psychodynamic thinking. That means practical skills are taught and practiced, while brief looks at past patterns help explain why certain problems repeat. Sessions focus on problem-solving and building coping strategies that fit everyday life.
She often addresses motivation, inattention, and the strain of managing a medical condition alongside mental health. Work on intimacy-related issues, career questions, bipolar symptoms, and parenting concerns is offered in straightforward, goal-oriented sessions. Personality disorder features and young adult issues are additional areas she pays attention to.
Therapy sessions typically move between skill-building and reflective conversation. Clients learn tools to manage anxiety, reactivity, and mood swings, then practice using them between meetings. The therapist keeps the work focused and practical so clients can try changes quickly.
Dr. Burgio-Murphy aims for clear goals and steady progress rather than open-ended discussion. She asks about what is working and what is not, then adjusts plans as needed. People who want to manage anger, reduce stress, or improve relationships will find concrete strategies and regular review of their progress.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
The practice blends evidence-based skill training with psychodynamic-informed work. Skills-based techniques focus on teaching concrete strategies for managing anxiety, anger, sleep, and attention problems; these are practical tools people can use between sessions to reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning. Psychodynamic-informed work looks at recurring patterns rooted in past experience so clients can see what might be blocking change and then test new behaviors in the present.Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they try methods, check what changes, and adjust the plan to better match real-life needs.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can assign practical between-session exercises and review progress remotely to keep the work focused and useful.
