    About Andra

    Andra Blackheart is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She focuses on helping people reconnect with themselves after big changes or painful events. She also helps clients strengthen relationships and build more satisfying connections with others.

    Andra works with adults who feel unsure about who they are or what they want. Some people come after a life transition or trauma. Others seek better connection with friends, community, children, or romantic partners. Her style aims to meet people where they are and build on what already works.

    Her approach draws on Motivational Interviewing and other conversational methods to help people find motivation and set realistic goals. She also uses client-centered and cognitive behavioral ideas to examine patterns and try small shifts that make a difference. Mindfulness and existential perspectives can appear when questions about meaning and daily presence come up.

    Andra has five years of clinical experience as an LCSW in Florida. She describes her work as practical and goal-oriented, with attention to identity and neurodivergent needs. She offers coaching and therapy options and can help with requests related to evaluation and documentation when that is part of a conversation.

    People who want clear, collaborative work and a therapist who attends to identity, trauma history, and relationship needs may find her a good fit. Prospective clients are encouraged to complete the intake steps on the site to learn more and see whether her approach matches their goals.

  2. How Andra Uses Talk-Based Tools Online

    Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people clarify what matters and find their own reasons to change. It can be useful for improving motivation around relationships, career moves, or personal goals.

    Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says. This helps people feel heard and explore identity, attachment, and values at their own pace.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors together and tries small experiments to shift unhelpful patterns. It can help with anxiety, mood, and day-to-day coping skills.

    Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision evolves as the sessions move forward and as goals change.

    Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people work from locations that are quieter or more convenient for them while focusing on practical steps and real-world goals.
