About Andrew
Andrew Wagoner is an LCSW licensed in Indiana and Kentucky with 16 years of professional experience. He works with adults on issues such as trauma and abuse, grief and loss, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and family matters.
He describes practical, respectful care that focuses on what each person needs in the moment. Conversations are adapted to the person rather than following a fixed script. Sessions aim to identify patterns that fuel reactions like anger and to build clearer ways of responding to stress and conflict.
Andrew draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address problems such as intense irritability, recurring resentment, and trouble calming down after arguments. He also helps clients who are dealing with complicated grief, the emotional burden of caregiving, and the burnout that can come from high-demand work roles.
He emphasizes straightforward planning and measurable steps. That can include learning specific skills for emotion regulation, practicing new communication approaches, and checking progress between meetings. The focus is on things people can try and adjust in daily life.
Sessions are collaborative and aim to fit practical goals into real schedules. Andrew accepts international clients and offers sessions linked to a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Before booking, people should confirm current session options to match their needs.
How sessions work
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Andrew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anger and related problems. Cognitive-behavioral strategies focus on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teach clear skills for interrupting anger cycles. These techniques are useful for problems like frequent irritability, workplace reactions, and unhelpful thinking that fuels resentment.He also uses emotion regulation and stress-management methods that teach concrete steps for calming down and recovering after a spike of anger. Those include grounding, short behavioral exercises, and planning small experiments to test different responses. These methods are often helpful when someone wants practical tools they can use during daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrew will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and schedule. That collaboration includes trying strategies, tracking what helps, and adjusting plans based on results.
