About Andrew
Andrew Wagoner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 16 years of experience. He practices in Kentucky and Indiana and works with people facing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, anger, bipolar concerns, compassion fatigue, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and family-related concerns.
He focuses on straightforward, practical conversations. Sessions look at the problems that cause the most distress now and identify small, manageable steps to reduce them. He adapts the pace and topics to what each person needs and checks in about progress as therapy continues.
Andrew draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and build coping strategies. That often means learning ways to manage strong emotions, reduce reactivity, and handle stress more effectively. He also helps people process grief and trauma one step at a time so overwhelming feelings become easier to bear.
He has worked with people affected by aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, cancer, hospice and end-of-life needs, first responder and veteran concerns, and men’s midlife challenges. He also has experience with dissociation, domestic violence, and personality-related issues such as avoidant or antisocial patterns.

How evidence-based approaches guide online work
Andrew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address current symptoms and build coping skills. One common approach focuses on learning concrete skills to manage strong emotions and reduce impulsive reactions, which can help with anger, stress, or bipolar mood swings. Another approach helps people process traumatic memories and grief through paced conversations and gradual exposure to difficult memories so distress becomes easier to manage.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss options with each person and choose methods based on the client’s goals, comfort level, and response as therapy progresses. That collaboration helps match techniques to what actually helps in a person’s daily life.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it simpler to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people also prefer not being on camera for parts of a session, or choose phone meetings when bandwidth is limited. Ask about formats during the matching steps so sessions align with practical needs.
