    About Andrea

    Andrea Russo is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She also supports those facing grief, life changes, work strain, intimacy questions, and struggles with self-esteem or ADHD. Andrea works in Florida and provides therapy in English.

    Andrea uses a calm, open approach in sessions. She aims to create a space where people can say what they feel without judgment. Conversations focus on what matters to each person now and on small steps they can try between meetings.

    Her practice draws on several well-known approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and actions shape mood and behavior. Motivational Interviewing helps people find personal reasons to make changes that fit their lives. Client-centered methods keep the person’s goals and values at the center of the work.

    Across sessions Andrea keeps things practical. She helps set clear goals and collaborates on strategies that fit a person’s daily routine. Progress is tracked in simple ways so adjustments can be made if something isn’t helping.

    Andrea holds licenses as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor. She brings around ten years of clinical experience and encourages anyone taking the first step toward therapy.

  2. How Andrea’s approaches translate to online therapy

    Andrea often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what change they want and why it matters to them. This approach focuses on listening, exploring ambivalence, and supporting self-directed goals. Client-Centered Therapy is another common strand in her work and emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere where the client’s perspective guides the pace and focus.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and helps people test small changes to see what improves daily functioning. These methods are practical and can address stress, anxiety, motivation, grief, and relationship concerns in focused conversations online.

    Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences, and adjustments are made over time based on progress and feedback.

    Session logistics and formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or avoid travel time. Discuss session length and timing when scheduling to find what fits best.
