About Andrea

Andrea Deases is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with five years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship and family issues, grief, anger, bipolar disorder, and life changes. Andrea focuses on practical steps her clients can take now rather than abstract promises.

Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and narrative methods. She listens to the situation, helps set clear goals, and uses structured techniques to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions emphasize concrete skills for coping, communication, and emotion regulation.

Her background includes work in crisis centers and community counseling. She has supported people through severe depression, bipolar disorder, and psychosis in high-intensity settings. She has also worked with children, teens, and caregivers at a community center on communication and boundary-setting.

Andrea earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler. She has applied clinical approaches across different settings for five years, often combining methods to suit the problem at hand.

In practice she aims to collaborate with each person to set realistic goals and track progress. Sessions may include skill practice, thought records, and brief experiments to test new responses. She also helps people reframe personal narratives and develop steady coping routines.

People looking for straightforward, skills-focused counseling often choose her for help with workplace stress, family tensions, adoption-related concerns, attachment questions, and recovery from sexual assault or abuse. She offers services in English and works within Texas.

How her main approaches work for online sessions

Andrea commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns that feed anxiety, depression, or anger. CBT involves tracking thoughts, testing small behavioral experiments, and practicing new responses to old triggers. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of her work and focuses on listening carefully and building a collaborative plan that reflects the client's goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques may be used for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, offering specific skills for managing intense feelings.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Andrea will work with the person to identify goals, try methods that fit the issue, and adjust the plan based on what is helpful. The first few sessions are used to set goals and agree on steps to take between meetings.

The practical aim of online therapy is to fit sessions into everyday life. Confirm which session formats she currently offers before booking, as they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or use audio-only meetings when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can guide skill practice, thought records, and between-session exercises in ways that fit a client's routine.
