Hello! My name is Andrea and I am a LCSW in Connecticut, with 28 + years, working as a therapist and counselor. I am highly experienced working with people of all ages and stages; children, adolescents and adults & seniors/ families and couples in direct practice, within the community or via Telehealth. Those coping with a wide range of issues, including, but not limited to: depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, ASD, ADD/ADHD, developmental, attachment and behavioral disorders and life stage adjustments; co-occurring mental health and substance abuse and eating disorders as well as memory and brain disorders.
I have facilitated healing primarily within an internal-family systems perspective/model and a focus on mindfulness and whole body wellness and healing. I am trained in CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing and EMDR, to name a few modalities. However, I tailor our dialogue and your treatment plan to your specific goals and needs.
My style is always warm, funny, compassionate, empathetic and interactive. I believe it takes a great deal of courage to embark on a therapeutic relationship, and it is my honor to be the one to sit across from you as you share your story; your needs, hopes and goals, as I help to problem solve with you and break barriers that may be causing you to feel stuck. I treat everyone I meet with dignity, respect, sensitivity and we typically begin the therapeutic process where you are. Therapy is a process in which I am able to provide a safe and nurturing place for you to explore your feelings and thoughts without judgment or expectations. It is my sincerest hope to support you to dig deep and discover the most authentic version of yourself.
I really look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Andrea Greenberg. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Andrea was able to help me grasp concepts and think in a way I hadn't been able to before. She helped me through a very difficult period where I couldn't see beyond the "right now" pain and confusion. Highly recommend Andrea!

The therapeutic relationship with Andrea Greenberg has grown over our few sessions to one of trust and mutual respect. Andrea actually LISTENS and hears my issues and concerns . She is truly empathic yet insightful. She does not utilize the common therapeutic approach such as... "and how does that make you feel ?".... instead offers support and the ability to be curious and investigate deeper meanings .

Andrea is amazing, she truly understands me and listens without judgement. I feel like she both encourages me to love myself as I am while also helping me work on things that are important to me.
