About Andrea
Andrea Deases is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, mood issues, grief, relationship and family concerns, and anger. Andrea also supports people navigating trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, and life changes.
She earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler. Her background includes counseling in crisis settings and community centers where she supported people facing severe depression, bipolar symptoms, and other acute needs. She has experience working with children, teens, and adults across a range of challenges.
Andrea uses an eclectic, practical approach focused on listening first and setting clear goals together. She blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, narrative work, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies. Sessions emphasize concrete skills, perspective shifts, and small achievable steps.
When anger shows up as snapping at loved ones, building resentment, or frustration at work, she helps people notice patterns and try different responses. She also supports those dealing with identity issues tied to adoption or attachment, and people processing sexual assault and abuse.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow the counselor-client steps of assessment, goal setting, and skill practice. Andrea describes therapy as a collaborative process where clients bring their experience and she offers methods to try and adjust over time. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting.
How sessions work
How Andrea’s approaches translate to online work
Andrea blends client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior ideas. Client-centered therapy means the therapist listens closely and uses what the client brings to guide sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce distress. Dialectical behavior elements teach concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving tolerance of difficult moments.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Andrea collaborates with clients to decide which methods to emphasize based on their goals, preferences, and what proves helpful in early sessions. That collaborative testing helps refine skills and adjust the plan over time.
