About Andrea
Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and codependency. She draws on nearly three decades of experience to offer steady, practical support. Andrea aims to make first visits simple and respectful so people can feel heard and understood from the start.
Andrea earned a Master of Social Work from Hunter College School of Social Work and has 29 years of behavioral health experience. She has worked in many settings with people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, parenting tensions, relationship strain, and mood disorders. Her background includes work with substance issues and smoking or vaping cessation.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Andrea uses a client-centered, strength-based approach and helps clients set concrete goals together. She may direct, advise, inform, or educate when that fits a person’s needs, but she centers each person’s own knowledge about themselves.
Andrea uses methods drawn from solution-focused work, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. In sessions she helps people build coping skills, notice patterns that cause pain, and try small, practical changes that lead to better days.
She welcomes conversations about life transitions, career concerns, parenting stress, and issues around control, guilt, or forgiveness. Andrea encourages people to take one manageable step toward change and to adjust the plan as they learn what works for them.
How Andrea’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Andrea uses client-centered work to follow each person’s priorities and strengths. This means sessions focus on what matters most to the client and build on skills they already have. It is helpful for people who want a supportive space to sort priorities and set personal goals.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and try practical behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing mood patterns through step-by-step exercises. Mindfulness therapy appears in her work as simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus in daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Andrea will talk with the client about goals, try methods, and adjust based on what actually helps. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to individual needs, whether working on codependency, parenting stress, addiction, or life transitions.
