She is currently pursuing a master’s degree in education in counseling at the University of Missouri – St. Louis. Upon graduation she will also earn certificates in Multiculturalism and Social Justice Counseling and Child and Adolescent Counseling.

She uses a person-centered approach that incorporates techniques from Play Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, DBT, mindfulness, sand tray, and art. 

Andrea sees children (4+) through young adults during her individual therapy sessions.

Andrea supports clients to manage challenges with self-esteem, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, life transitions, and interpersonal relationships. She values collaborating with caregivers to best support their child’s journey while strengthening their family connection.
