Biography

"Andrew Penn, LMHC, is a dedicated mental health counselor with over five years of experience supporting adults navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, and men’s mental health issues. He primarily draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI), helping clients identify how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact to shape their experience. His approach emphasizes collaboration, empowerment, and creating a safe space where clients feel respected and heard.

Andrew has worked in a range of settings, including Drug Court programs, outpatient clinics, correctional facilities, and substance use treatment centers. He’s passionate about making therapy accessible and meaningful, especially for individuals who may feel hesitant to seek help. Outside of work, Andrew enjoys cruising, hitting the gym, watching movies, and spending time with his dogs, family, and friends."
