About Andrew
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with five years of clinical experience, Andrew Cuevas helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. He speaks English and offers care in California. Andrew presents himself as straightforward and collaborative in session.
Andrew focuses on listening carefully and helping people understand what they are going through. He looks for patterns that keep someone feeling stuck and works with them to build practical tools. Sessions center on clear steps rather than abstract advice.
His clinical work includes approaches grounded in evidence-based therapy. He uses elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy while adapting to each person’s goals and circumstances. He aims to match methods to what a person needs instead of using one rigid plan for everyone.
Andrew normalizes difficult emotions and treats them as information rather than signs of failure. He helps people notice how they respond to feelings like sadness, fear, anger, or anxiety, and then practices alternative responses that reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
People who are unsure where to begin can start by talking about what currently feels most urgent. Andrew emphasizes collaborative planning so that each person’s values and life situation shape the work. The first sessions typically focus on understanding the problem, setting goals, and identifying a few practical strategies to try.

How his clinical approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It helps people reduce anxiety and depression by changing thinking patterns and behaviors. DBT provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling conflict more effectively. Both approaches emphasize practice between sessions so skills generalize to daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Andrew will work with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, values, and everyday constraints. He reviews what is working and adjusts the plan so the work stays relevant and practical.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when that is helpful, and remove the need to travel to an office. Licensed professionals often use these benefits to help people practice skills and maintain momentum between sessions.
