About Andrew
Andrew Newhouse is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 14 years of clinical experience. He listens without judgment and helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or stuck. He also supports people facing addiction, grief, trauma, and the everyday strain of parenting and family life.
Andrew draws on clear, practical methods in sessions. He uses client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person. He pairs that with cognitive behavioral strategies to spot patterns of thinking that get in the way.
Background and approach
He also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, doable goals that make daily life easier. His own experience with loss influenced his path to therapy, so he pays close attention to grief and life transitions. He has worked with many people coping with substance use, post-traumatic stress, and relationship strain.
He emphasizes steady, manageable steps rather than sudden overhauls. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Clients can expect a mix of listening, practical skill-building, and short-term plans to try between sessions.
Andrew helps people track progress and adjust approaches as needs change. He is licensed as an LMFT in Hawaii and brings years of experience balancing clinical skills with everyday problem-solving. People searching for clear, compassionate support for ADHD, anxiety, addiction, or family-related stress often find his style straightforward and accessible.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. The therapist mirrors concerns and helps people name their priorities so sessions stay relevant and respectful. This approach is useful when someone needs space to process grief, life changes, or emotional overwhelm.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Sessions include learning simple skills to change unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and problem behaviors tied to substance use.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted over time based on progress and feedback so the work stays practical and useful.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is helpful for deeper conversations when bandwidth allows. Phone calls can be shorter check-ins or suit lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging work well for brief updates, skill practice, or when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep consistent appointments and to use therapy around work, family, or daily life commitments.
