About Andrea
Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly three decades of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, parenting challenges, and mood concerns. She practices from New York and offers straightforward, practical support for people trying to manage life changes and relationship strain.
Andrea focuses on goals that matter to each person and works alongside them to build clearer next steps. Andrea draws on client-centered and solution-focused approaches to keep sessions grounded and useful.
Background and approach
She listens for strengths and past successes, then helps people apply those skills to current problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used when helpful to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Her style is collaborative and direct.
She can guide, coach, or educate as needed while keeping the person’s priorities front and center. Sessions tend to focus on practical strategies and small experiments that can be tried between meetings.
Over 29 years in behavioral health, Andrea has worked in varied settings with people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, parenting stress, and mood disorders including bipolar disorder and depression. That breadth of experience informs a flexible approach that adapts to each person’s situation. Sessions are offered in English and Andrea accepts international clients.
She emphasizes respect, clear goals, and step-by-step progress so people feel more capable managing parenting demands, work stress, or recovery challenges.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s priorities. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what matters most, and helps set goals that feel right. This approach helps with parenting stress, relationship concerns, and feeling stuck.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical techniques to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, mood challenges, and habits like smoking or problematic substance use. Sessions often include simple exercises and steps to try between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will collaborate to choose methods that match a person’s needs and goals, adjusting as progress is made. The focus is on what helps most in day-to-day life rather than following a fixed plan.
Online therapy makes this flexibility easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and use less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief check-ins, quick coaching, or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people maintain continuity of care while juggling parenting, work, or recovery.
