Andrea Corson

Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 29 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, depression, grief, and life changes. Andrea aims to make the first steps toward help feel manageable and respectful of each person’s pace.

Andrea trained at Hunter College School of Social Work and practices in New York. She has worked in hospitals, clinics, and community settings. Over nearly three decades she has supported people dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, family problems, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, and substance concerns.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Andrea uses a client-centered, strength-based approach and focuses on practical solutions. She and the client set clear goals together and choose strategies that fit the person’s life and values.

Andrea draws on several therapeutic methods to meet different needs. She may use cognitive behavioral techniques to address patterns of thinking and behavior. Motivational interviewing can help when someone is weighing change, and mindfulness practices offer ways to manage stress and stay present.

Sessions are geared toward achievable steps rather than abstract theory. Andrea can offer direction, education, or coaching as needed while keeping the client’s priorities central. She welcomes questions and works to build a trusting working relationship.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Andrea often uses client-centered methods that focus on the person’s goals and strengths, meeting people where they are and tailoring the work to their needs. This approach helps shape sessions that feel practical and relevant.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT offers concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns, which can be practiced between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy is another common tool she uses to help people manage stress and increase awareness through simple attention practices.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences, and adjustments are made as the work progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow short check-ins when schedules are tight, or let people choose a setup that feels most comfortable for them. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, mindfulness exercises, and solution-focused conversations to remote sessions when those formats are offered.
