Biography

Andrea Reed, LPC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through life transitions, emotional challenges, and recovery. With a background in public service and education, Andrea brings a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to her work with adolescents and adults.

Andrea’s clinical focus includes anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction recovery, relationship issues, and self-esteem. She specializes in providing trauma-informed, person-centered care to individuals navigating stress, life transitions, grief, and identity concerns. Andrea is also deeply committed to affirming care for the LGBTQ+ community and those in recovery.

Her therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills. With every client, Andrea creates a safe and supportive space where they feel respected, heard, and empowered to build resilience and take meaningful steps toward change.

Clients appreciate Andrea’s warm presence, clear communication, and collaborative style. She meets each person where they are, helping them gain insight, build practical coping skills, and move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Outside of therapy, Andrea enjoys spending time with her family, reading, and relaxing with her dogs. She finds joy in learning and unwinding with a good TV drama.
