About Andrea
Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 29 years of behavioral health experience. She helps people who struggle with stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, depression, and relationship or family problems. Andrea also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, parenting challenges, ADHD, and life transitions.
Her sessions are practical and collaborative. She works with clients to set clear goals and then uses conversation, guidance, and skills practice to reach them. Andrea can offer direction, education, and feedback when helpful, and she treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life.
Andrea uses solution-focused and client-centered approaches to help people make changes that matter now. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to address unhelpful thoughts and build emotional regulation. Motivational interviewing is part of her toolkit for people working on substance use or behavior change.
In a session she will listen, ask focused questions, and suggest small, achievable steps to try between appointments. Sessions tend to emphasize practical strategies for managing anger, improving communication, and reducing stress. She works at a pace set by the client and revisits goals as progress is made.
Andrea trained at Hunter College School of Social Work and has worked across clinical settings. Her background includes supporting people with addiction, mood disorders, family conflict, and life-change challenges. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English.
How sessions work
How Andrea Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Andrea commonly uses solution-focused and client-centered methods to keep work practical and goal-oriented. Solution-focused therapy means identifying small, concrete steps to move forward and testing those steps between sessions. Client-centered work prioritizes the client's perspective and helps shape goals together.She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and change reactive patterns. CBT provides exercises and simple tools to reduce anger and anxiety by shifting thinking and behavior. Mindfulness techniques are used to build awareness of bodily sensations and emotional triggers so moments of anger can be noticed earlier and responded to differently.
Choosing the best mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Andrea will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision can change as work progresses and as different challenges arise.
