About Andrea
Andrea Villescas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. Andrea also supports people dealing with grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Andrea uses clear, structured methods to help people notice thoughts and habits that keep problems going. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness practices. Sessions include practical tools and short exercises to try between meetings.
Her approach is straightforward and skills-based. Andrea helps people identify manageable next steps, test different responses, and build new routines that fit daily life. She also addresses issues tied to military and first responder experiences and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.
Andrea has worked across diverse communities in Texas and brings that experience into session planning. She explains options in plain language and checks in about what is working. Progress is approached one step at a time with measurable goals when that fits the person's needs.
Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are not accepted. Practical matters like scheduling and fees are handled through the service process before the first appointment.
How Andrea uses structured approaches in online sessions
Andrea commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in session. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing small experiments to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. ACT teaches skills for noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values, which can help with stress, grief, and coping with life changes.Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust plans based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together whether CBT, ACT, DBT skills, or mindfulness work best for specific concerns.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and making it easier to keep regular check-ins. The service uses a matching and scheduling flow before the first appointment, so confirm the exact session options during that process. This helps ensure sessions align with daily routines, technology needs, and the amount of time someone can commit.
