About Andrea

Andrea Douglas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alabama who blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a client-focused stance.

Background and approach

With 13 years of professional experience, she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and solution-focused techniques to help people rethink unhelpful patterns and make tangible changes in day-to-day life. Andrea emphasizes adaptable treatment that meets each person's situation rather than applying a single formula.

Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career questions, anger, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on more specific issues such as abandonment, blended family dynamics, commitment and communication problems, body image, infidelity, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

Andrea aims to partner with clients to identify priorities, set realistic goals, and practice skills that support sustained improvement. Clients can expect a collaborative, personalized process that balances practical tools and empathic listening.

Her background includes training in several approaches so treatment plans can be tailored to individual goals and preferences.

Integrating proven approaches into online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is focused on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so clients can practice new skills and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and building a trusting therapeutic relationship, helping people feel heard while exploring personal goals and values.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work; Andrea collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time so the plan remains relevant and practical for daily life.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access care around work and family schedules, allow for ongoing skill practice between sessions, and support continuity when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver structured approaches like CBT or conversational, client-centered support depending on what a client finds most helpful.
