About Aundrea

Aundrea "Andie" Moss brings a decade of clinical social work experience to her practice in Illinois, offering support for concerns such as anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and relationship difficulties.

Background and approach

She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who frames her work around empathy and a strengths-based, person-centered outlook, aiming to meet clients where they are and build practical skills for change.

Her background spans residential and outpatient treatment, hospital settings, and home-based services, with experience addressing co-occurring disorders, substance use, trauma and abuse, eating and food-related issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and end-of-life concerns.

Andie integrates evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to tailor interventions to individual needs. Clients can expect collaborative work that emphasizes empowerment, coping strategies, and gradual progress toward meaningful goals.

Andie draws on training and varied clinical settings to adapt practical techniques for stress management, communication challenges, and complex emotional concerns while supporting growth and resilience.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Andie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and addressing behaviors that maintain problems. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness for people managing intense emotions or relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life circumstances and then adapts a mix of approaches such as CBT, DBT, or client-centered techniques so treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single modality.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue work while traveling within the therapist's service region, or choose the format that feels most comfortable for sharing and practicing new skills.
