About Andrea
Andrea Daigle is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (ME LCSW) with five years of experience as a therapist. She helps people manage anxiety, depression, stress, grief, trauma, and other concerns listed in her profile. Andrea practices in Maine and holds a Master of Social Work from the University of New England.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, trying new responses, and building practical skills for everyday situations. Andrea draws on settings experience in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and schools.
Her approach is straightforward and action-oriented. Conversations often include clear behavioral steps, short-term goals, and ways to track progress. She aims to help people reduce distressing symptoms and increase coping options through repeated practice and reflection.
Andrea has worked across varied clinical environments in Maine, which shaped her generalist practice. That background supports people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, career stress, addiction concerns, and issues around identity such as LGBTQ matters. She also addresses obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and young adult concerns.
People who meet with her can expect a focus on concrete strategies, specific skills, and practical problem solving. Early sessions commonly clarify goals and identify a few steps to try between meetings. Booking involves completing an intake matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How Andrea applies structured approaches to remote sessions
Andrea commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this makes it practical to set concrete tasks and review results between meetings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy complements CBT by helping people clarify values and take values-based actions even when emotions are difficult. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These techniques suit people who need step-by-step tools for managing intense feelings and reducing reactive behavior. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. Andrea will help clients pick methods based on their goals, symptoms, and daily routines. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made. Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday break, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Practical benefits include scheduling sessions around work or caregiving, trying behavioral experiments in real time, and carrying over skills directly into daily life.Areas of expertise
