About Andrea

Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, and separation or divorce. She draws on nearly three decades of experience to support people dealing with grief, mood challenges, parenting worries, and life transitions. Andrea speaks English and accepts international clients.

Andrea earned a Master of Social Work from Hunter College School of Social Work in New York City. She has worked in a range of behavioral health settings across 29 years, assisting people with issues such as trauma, substance concerns, depression, anger, and family problems. Her background means she is familiar with both short-term problem solving and longer-term change work.

Her style is collaborative and focused on strengths. She treats the person as the expert and helps clients set practical goals they want to reach. She can offer direction, education, or coaching when it fits a client's needs. Sessions emphasize clear steps and doable strategies rather than vague advice.

Andrea uses solution-focused and client-centered techniques together with cognitive behavioral and mindfulness tools. She also draws on motivational interviewing to support readiness for change. In sessions she works to make tasks manageable and to help people notice progress over time.

People who choose Andrea often want straightforward guidance through tough transitions like separation, addiction recovery, or major life changes. To begin, she asks clients to identify goals and then builds a plan that fits everyday life.

How Andrea’s approaches translate to online care

Andrea uses client-centered methods that focus on your goals and strengths. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, helps you name concrete objectives, and adjusts the work to what you say is important. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is also part of her toolbox and looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood; sessions often include simple exercises and small behavioral experiments to try between meetings. Mindfulness therapy teaches basic awareness and grounding skills to reduce overwhelming feelings and improve focus during stressful moments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that suit their needs, goals, and comfort level, and will adapt techniques over time based on what helps most. This is a team process that aims to be practical and goal-oriented.

The original biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm available session types before booking. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep consistent appointments. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins or more flexible timing when needed, helping therapy fit into everyday life.
