About Provider

About Andrea

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 29 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through life’s most difficult challenges. Over the years, I have worked extensively with individuals facing trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and relationship concerns. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to build healthier coping strategies while moving toward a life of resilience and balance.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Kutztown University. My therapeutic approaches draw from cognitive-behavioral therapy as well as eclectic methods that integrate journaling, music, and role-playing to promote client wellness. I believe in tailoring my work to each individual’s needs while providing compassionate, evidence-based care.

I am passionate about helping people find their best path forward. I truly believe that every person deserves the opportunity to live with purpose and peace. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients, celebrate their successes, and support them as they discover the strength within themselves to create meaningful change.

What types of clients do you work best with?

I work best with adolescents, young adults and middle adulthood.

What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?

Healing is an individual process.  No one can tell you how it should look for you.  Together, we find what is right for you.

What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?

In the first session, it is relaxed get to know who you are individually.  I take therapy at your pace and we developed a vision of what you want.

What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?

As a long - time practitioner, I consciously practice no judgement. I want therapy to be the safe space where you relax and be who you want and express.

How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?

I like to start with ice breakers usually with trivia cards or get to know you cards.
