About Connie

Connie Drew brings 15 years of clinical experience to her practice, focusing on helping people move through stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship struggles, and issues with self-esteem and parenting.

Background and approach

Connie, LPC and LCMHC, frames her work around restoring hope and building practical skills so clients can address immediate concerns and make lasting changes. Her style is warm, interactive, and relationship-centered, blending practical, evidence-informed techniques with a person-focused conversation.

While she often uses cognitive behavioral methods to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new coping strategies, she also draws on solution-focused ideas to set clear, achievable goals. Connie tailors each conversation and plan to what the individual needs, helping clients clarify priorities like family problem resolution, stronger self-love, or discovering life purpose.

Clients who choose Connie can expect a collaborative process aimed at empowerment and growth. She welcomes international clients and provides sessions in multiple formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Approaches for Working Online and Moving Forward



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence, then building practical skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable steps and clear short-term goals to create momentum and reinforce progress in areas such as family problems or parenting difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Connie will work with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors sessions so strategies align with what the client finds most useful and realistic. Together they set priorities and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Connie is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend regularly, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care across time zones for international clients. The variety of formats supports practical, ongoing work on stress, relationships, self-esteem, and other concerns.
