About Andrea
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 19 years of clinical experience, Andrea Hamilton focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, anger, mood issues, addictions, trauma and related challenges. She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a master’s in Counselor Education, and an MBA from Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida. Andrea has spent most of her career working in the child welfare system and community settings across South Florida.
Andrea has worked with people affected by substance misuse, sexual assault, and those in the prison system in Dade and Broward Counties. She helped start both a female therapeutic group home in Broward County and a co-ed group home shelter in Dade County. That background means she is experienced with systems, placements, and service settings that affect families and individuals.
In sessions she draws on practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood, behavior, and relationship patterns. She focuses on concrete skills people can use to manage anxiety, cope with grief, and reduce conflict. Andrea also works with people navigating life changes, challenges with intimacy and self-esteem, and concerns related to parenting and career stress.
Her experience includes both institutional and community-based work, which informs a direct style that centers real-world problem solving. She aims to help clients identify patterns, practice new responses, and track measurable progress. People who want straightforward guidance about next steps often choose this approach.
Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site process to match and schedule a first appointment.

How evidence-based techniques translate to remote care
Andrea draws on common evidence-based techniques that focus on skills and behavior change. One approach emphasizes learning concrete coping skills to reduce anxiety and manage mood swings; it teaches short, repeatable exercises people can use between sessions. Another approach concentrates on processing trauma and abuse using structured techniques that help people make sense of painful events and reduce their long-term impact.Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk about options, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust plans based on how the client responds. The goal is to match techniques to current problems, goals, and preferences rather than applying a single method.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weeknight or a break at work, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and homework so they work between sessions, helping people practice skills in daily life without promising any particular outcome.
