About Andrea
Andrea Deases is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and relationship or family concerns, and she lists trauma, grief, anger, and parenting-related topics among her focus areas. Andrea also notes work with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and workplace difficulties.
She uses a straightforward, collaborative way of working. Andrea listens first, then helps set clear goals together. Sessions often focus on practical steps people can take to feel steadier day to day. She believes some things in life can’t be changed, and some things can be approached differently to reduce distress.
Her clinical methods include client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral approaches, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and narrative work. That mix is used to fit the problem at hand - skills for managing emotions, ways to reframe unhelpful thinking, and exercises for improving communication at home or work. These tools are chosen to help with mood regulation, anxiety, and relationship patterns.
Andrea’s past work includes crisis centers and community counseling settings. She has supported people during severe depressive episodes and bipolar symptoms, and has worked with children, teens, and families on communication and boundaries. In adult work she has helped with life transitions, low self-esteem, and general self-growth.
People who come for help can expect a practical, goal-oriented process. Sessions combine listening, skill-building, and reflecting on personal stories to move toward clearer ways of coping and relating.
How sessions work
How Andrea’s approaches translate to online sessions
A client-centered approach focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and making practical changes based on the client’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior. It gives concrete strategies for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, mood disorders, and relationship stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than imposing a single method.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy home and work routines, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can schedule during breaks or after work. Licensed professionals can use the same techniques online as in person, including guided exercises, thought records, mindfulness practices, and skills rehearsal adapted for remote sessions.
