About Andrea
Andrea Ferrara is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, addictions, grief, and other life challenges. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Andrea has 17 years of experience and brings a steady, problem-solving approach to sessions.
Andrea draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral ideas to guide sessions. She aims to create space for people to name their feelings, spot unhelpful patterns, and try different ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and oriented around goals the client sets. Her background includes work in independent practice, inpatient and outpatient settings, crisis call centers, suicide hotlines, and military installations. That range gives her experience with many kinds of stress and life transitions.
She also has experience giving group presentations for psychoeducation. Andrea focuses on helping people change unwanted behaviors, build coping skills, and improve communication. She supports individuals dealing with parenting strain, career frustration, intimacy issues, sleep and eating concerns, and complications from trauma or loss.
She will help clients break problems into manageable steps and track progress. Sessions emphasize practical skills and self-care habits that fit daily life. Andrea meets clients where they are and works with them to find realistic solutions they can use between sessions.

Online support
Approach-driven care delivered online
Andrea uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name deep emotions that shape relationship patterns and personal distress. EFT can be helpful for those wanting clearer emotional understanding and stronger connections in important relationships.She also brings Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on listening and supporting each person where they are, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. These approaches help with stress, panic, depression, and coping after loss or change.
Choosing an approach is part of the work. Andrea will collaborate with clients to decide which methods match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients help set goals and try practical steps between sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and nonverbal cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can serve as brief check-ins or flexible support during a busy week. These options make scheduling easier and let clients fit therapy into their daily routines.
