About Andrea

Andrea Russo is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the everyday strains that come with life changes. She supports clients navigating relationship and intimacy challenges, grief, self-esteem concerns, career questions, and ADHD-related difficulties. Andrea works in English and practices from Florida where she holds licensure as an LMHC and as an LPC in Georgia.

She uses a straightforward, conversational style in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what a person wants to change.

Background and approach

Andrea listens closely and asks questions that help people notice patterns and consider different choices. Her work draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s experience, plus cognitive behavioral strategies to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people stay grounded and existential ideas to explore meaning and values when life feels uncertain.

Andrea aims to make the first steps easier. She meets people where they are and helps create manageable goals. Sessions often include practical tools to try between meetings so progress feels tangible.

With ten years of professional experience, Andrea blends practical problem-solving with a warm, accepting presence. People looking for clear, collaborative support for stress, relationship struggles, mood concerns, or ADHD-related challenges may find her approach helpful.

Approach-driven support delivered online

Andrea often combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify what matters to them and test small changes that reduce distress. Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and understood; it helps when someone needs a calm space to sort thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down distress into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try techniques that match those goals, and adjust methods over time so the plan fits the client’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions offer practical benefits for people juggling busy schedules or limited transportation. Video calls provide face-to-face interaction when in-person visits are difficult. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between appointments, share short updates, or have brief check-ins that fit into a break at work or school. These options make it easier to maintain continuity and try new skills in real life.
