About Andrea
LCSW in Illinois with 23 years of experience, Andrea Moore focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, and intimacy-related issues. She works with adults who bring concerns about attachment, blended family dynamics, caregiver strain, divorce and separation, and related life transitions. Sessions are conversational and practical, aimed at identifying immediate problems and clearer next steps.
Andrea frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try different ways of responding. Conversations often include exploring family of origin issues, working through guilt and shame, and addressing impulses or behaviors that cause regret.
She also assists with fertility-related distress, coping with hospice and end-of-life concerns, and questions about life purpose and midlife transitions. When intimacy or infidelity is raised, sessions focus on understanding feelings and figuring out concrete choices going forward.
Andrea values a respectful, sensitive approach in session. She adapts the pace and topics to what a person brings that day and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques where helpful. She notes that starting therapy can feel difficult and treats taking that step as a practical move toward clarity.
Clients begin by answering a short questionnaire and scheduling an initial appointment. The work that follows aims to reduce immediate distress and build manageable strategies for handling future challenges.

Evidence-based approaches and remote sessions
Andrea uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. One common approach she favors is structured talk therapy that identifies unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, then practices different responses; this helps with anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. Another technique focuses on processing traumatic experiences in manageable steps so memories and reactions become less overwhelming; this is often used for trauma and abuse recovery.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss options and adapt methods based on a person's goals, current difficulties, and how they respond in early sessions. Decisions about pacing and focus are made collaboratively rather than fixed at the start.
Confirm current session formats before booking since the original biography does not list specific remote options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - fewer trips, quicker check-ins, and flexibility to schedule around work or caregiving. Some people prefer shorter remote sessions for brief problem-solving, while others use full-length appointments for deeper work. Talk with Andrea after the initial matching questionnaire to clarify how sessions will be arranged and what will work best for daily routines.
