About Andrea
Andrea Lane is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of clinical experience working with adults. She focuses on anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship difficulties, and the stresses that come with life transitions. Andrea also addresses concerns like self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues.
Andrea uses a mix of practical talk and structured techniques. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Mindfulness and acceptance-based strategies are used to help people manage strong feelings and stay connected to their values. Motivational interviewing can be part of sessions when clients want help changing substance use or other habits.
Sessions typically center on clear goals and small, doable steps. Andrea helps people sort priorities, practice new ways of communicating, and build routines that make daily life easier. She also works with family of origin issues, codependency, and problems tied to attachment and abandonment.
Her approach includes attention to sleep, eating, and anger management when those areas affect mood and functioning. Clients who are dealing with bipolar symptoms, compounding mental health challenges, or compassion fatigue may use strategies aimed at stabilizing mood and improving coping skills.
Andrea offers services in English and works with adults in Alabama. International clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Andrea’s approaches translate to online work
Andrea often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions consistent with those values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and feeling stuck when making life choices.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to mood and stress. CBT involves practical exercises and repeated practice to shift thoughts and routines that interfere with daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea treats the choice of methods as collaborative and will help you pick techniques that fit your goals, needs, and preferences as the sessions progress.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let someone choose sessions that do or do not use video, depending on what suits their schedule and energy levels.
