About Andrea

Andrea Travers is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Andrea supports people who are working through substance use and other overlapping concerns.

Andrea focuses on helping people notice how thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and past experiences connect. She helps clients learn different ways to respond when old patterns cause distress. In sessions she uses practical, evidence-based techniques to practice new skills and to try small changes between meetings.

She has experience helping both adults and children manage anxiety, trauma, and substance use issues. That background includes addressing attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, communication problems, and caregiver stress. Andrea also works with people facing fertility challenges, forgiveness work, and the effects of domestic violence.

People meet her to build clearer ways of thinking about problems and to practice coping skills that fit daily life. Sessions focus on concrete steps rather than abstract explanations. Progress is measured in what a person can try and use outside the session.

Andrea asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, with costs that vary by location.

Evidence-based techniques and online sessions

Andrea describes her approach as using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people see links between thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and past experiences. Cognitive-based methods focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing alternative ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Skills-based strategies teach concrete coping tools for managing stress, cravings related to substance use, and distress after trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. She will talk through options and try techniques together so the person can judge what helps most.

The practitioner notes session options in the intake materials; please confirm current session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full in-person visit is difficult. Discuss preferences during the matching questionnaire so scheduling and format reflect what will work best for day-to-day life.
