About Andrea
Andrea Tucker is a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana with seven years of practice. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and questions around sexuality. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, low self-esteem, anger, and major life changes.
Her sessions are practical and direct. She listens first, then helps people set clear, manageable goals. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and what steps feel doable that week.
Background and approach
Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. She pays attention to how multiple struggles interact, such as addiction alongside mood concerns. That means treatment plans aim to address linked issues together rather than in isolation.
She also works on communication problems, codependency, and impulsivity when those come up. Andrea approaches LGBTQ questions with sensitivity and respect. She helps clients explore identity, self-love, and relationship concerns without judgment.
Forgiveness, guilt, and shame are common themes she addresses in straightforward ways. Sessions are shaped to each person’s needs and pace. People can expect clear suggestions, homework-style practice when useful, and check-ins on progress.
Andrea emphasizes small, steady changes that add up over time.
Online therapy using CBT and goal-focused sessions
Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice the thoughts that keep problems going and practice different ways of responding. CBT is action-oriented and works well for anxiety, depression, stress, and many patterns that feed addiction or low mood.Her work also includes straightforward skills training for coping and communication. These sessions focus on short, practical exercises you can try between meetings to see small changes quickly. That helps with relationship tensions, impulsivity, and building self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they adjust methods so the work matches what the client needs and can realistically do.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you keep face-to-face contact from different locations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, reflections, or when people prefer writing over speaking. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
