Welcome! Life can be challenging, but you don’t have to go at it alone. My name is Andrea, and I am here to offer guidance, helping you dive deeper into your sense of self, the world, and how you experience it. Through clinical tools and exploration, I will help you construct a life that feels aligned with the one you have always envisioned for yourself. Through client-tailored techniques, we will work through your unique experiences while overcoming obstacles to help you live your best life. My empathy-first and inclusive approach to individual and couples therapy will help get you to a place of healing, peace, and wellbeing.
Grateful Guidance offers clinical and expert tools in an inclusive environment, helping you feel comfortable and inspired to make powerful strides towards creating a life you love. People often come to me with challenges related to stress, anxiety, depression, pregnancy, postpartum, trauma, interpersonal conflict, etc.
Grateful guidance incorporates both gratitude and counseling, creating a fully-inclusive practice. While I currently offer counseling, I will be including group or individual yoga and meditation classes to supplement therapy. This wraparound approach will help our clients live their best life now and in the future.
