She’s like a detective, the way she puts each puzzle piece of my life together to best understand me and my experience. I’m very grateful for her!

Andra Coulter has the talent and skills to help me navigate my unknown questions. Andra is a very good listener; she provides clear feedback with sense of calmness and compassion. I never felt rush to answer questions - giving me the time to reflect and to come to my own conclusions. Andra is a very professional therapist!

I only met with Andra a handful of times, but she was exceptional. It was her breadth of experience with an eclectic style that enabled her to resource and guide me toward more specific tools and methods. I felt stuck and she put me right back on the path and I will forever be grateful.

I am so appreciative and thankful for my counselor Andra. She is so kind, quick to respond, such a great listener and giver of wise advice and counsel, and I feel very safe to be open and vulnerable with her. She is one of the best counselors I have ever worked with and I am so grateful to have her support and expertise in my life.
