Welcome all. I’m Andrea, founder of Thrive Together Therapy. I support individuals, couples, children & adolescents, as they navigate life’s challenges, offering a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. My approach blends DBT, holistic wellness, and heartfelt, practical care. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or just in need of someone to walk beside you, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where healing can unfold. I believe therapy should feel like a genuine connection—collaborative, empowering, and deeply human. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’m here to meet you with compassion and care
I specialize in anxiety, emotional regulation, relationship and parenting struggles, and working with teens and young adults. My approach blends DBT and holistic care within a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard and supported.
Reaching out can feel overwhelming - I truly understand. You don’t have to carry it all on your own. When you’re ready, I’ll be right here to walk beside you with warmth, care, and understanding. This is your healing journey - we’ll take it as slow as you need you. Hope to hear from you soon

I work with clients who are struggling with a variety of issues in general such as stress/anxiety, depression, school issues and life transitions. In our first sessions, we'll gently explore what's weighing on you and work together to create a plan that feels right for you. Most of my clients start to feel some relief within the first month, with lasting improvement over time.

I often use both CBT and DBT in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. Throughout therapy, you'll learn practical skills to manage emotions, reduce overwhelm, and navigate relationships with more ease. During treatment, we'll build tools for mindfulness, regulation, and resilience.
