About Andrea

Andrea Russo is a licensed therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, depression, and big life changes. She also supports individuals dealing with grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem struggles, career decisions, ADHD, and LGBT-related concerns. Andrea writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person.

She aims to make sessions feel open and nonjudgmental so clients can talk honestly about feelings and choices. Andrea draws from approaches that focus on the person's own goals and strengths. Sessions move at a steady pace and focus on practical steps people can try between meetings.

Andrea holds LMHC and LPC credentials and has about 10 years of professional experience. She is licensed in Florida and works with people in English. Her background includes helping clients navigate transitions and stressors that affect daily life and relationships.

In sessions she blends client-centered work with techniques that help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses mindfulness and motivational strategies to support coping and decision-making. The tone is collaborative - the client’s priorities shape each plan.

To begin, Andrea asks about current concerns, personal strengths, and what a better week would look like. From there she and the client set small, specific goals and check progress over time. This approach keeps the work practical and focused on everyday improvements.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters to you, helping you set goals and feel heard. It works well for stress, relationship questions, and making sense of life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns; it can help with anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea aims to figure out what fits through conversation about your needs, goals, and how you prefer to work. She will suggest techniques and check in to see what helps, adjusting plans with your input.

The therapist biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by cutting commute time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or letting you meet from a location that reduces disruption to your day. Many people find these practical benefits help keep progress steady while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
