About Andrea
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. Andrea Deases focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, relationships, family concerns, grief, anger, and coping with life changes. She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical behavior skills to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes.
Andrea earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler. She has worked in crisis centers supporting people through severe depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. She also has experience in community settings with children, teens, and parents focused on communication and boundaries.
In sessions she listens first, then collaborates with clients to set clear goals. Her stated approach combines client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques, solution-focused methods, narrative therapy, mindfulness practices, and dialectical behavior strategies. Sessions focus on concrete coping skills, shifts in perspective, and steps people can take between meetings.
She has guided adults through transitions, loss, low self-esteem, workplace stress, and recovery from sexual assault and abuse. Andrea also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, life purpose questions, and mood disorders more broadly.
Clients can expect practical conversations about what is happening now and what to try next. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort to notice patterns, practice new skills, and make changes that fit everyday life.

How certain therapies translate to remote sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and collaborating on goals. In remote work this means the therapist mirrors concerns, asks clarifying questions, and helps people choose what to try next. This approach helps with adjustment, low self-esteem, and relationship patterns.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Online sessions can review thought records, practice behavioral experiments, and set small between-session tasks to manage anxiety and mood symptoms.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. In virtual meetings Andrea can teach and rehearse specific DBT skills, coach through real-time practice, and plan skill use for stressful moments.
Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods, and adjust strategies based on what works and what feels manageable. That planning happens together over the first sessions.
The biography does not specify which session formats are used for remote work, so confirm current options before booking. Remote treatment can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists commonly adapt exercises for audio or video conversations so practical skill-building continues between meetings.
