About Andrea
Andrea Beltran works from a client-centered approach that keeps each conversation focused on the person in front of her. She is a licensed clinical social worker in Colorado with 10 years of experience. Andrea aims to create clear, practical steps when people feel stuck by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or big life changes.
She uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies to help manage strong emotions and change unhelpful thinking.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in to build focus, motivation, and self-compassion. The result is a mix of skills practice and real-life problem solving. Andrea has particular experience supporting people who struggle with concentration, ADHD-related challenges, and panic attacks.
She also helps with workplace stress, relationship communication problems, and the strain of caregiving. Her approach addresses both everyday coping and longer-standing mood concerns. Sessions are tailored to each person and to their goals.
Andrea listens, asks practical questions, and helps set achievable steps to try between meetings. She aims for a tone that is respectful, direct, and hopeful. People come for help with feelings of isolation, guilt, or low confidence, and leave with clearer options and tools they can use.
Andrea believes small, steady changes add up, and she supports people as they try new habits and ways of thinking.
Therapeutic approaches that work online
Andrea blends client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening closely and shaping the session around the person’s goals, which helps when someone needs a space to sort feelings and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and actions and teaches simple exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood, which works well for stress, panic, and low self-esteem.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy tools to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Those skills are helpful for managing intense reactions and impulsivity in daily life. Finding the right approach is part of the process - the therapist works collaboratively to choose and adjust methods based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences so sessions feel practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option for a focused check-in, and chat or messaging work well for short updates, quick coaching, or when writing feels easier. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days while keeping the work focused on achievable steps and coping strategies.
