About Andrea
Andrea Corson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 29 years of behavioral health experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and codependency concerns. Andrea also supports those coping with trauma, grief, anger, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and life transitions.
Her sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than long lectures. She uses a client-centered, solution-focused approach and can offer direction, advice, or education when it helps. Clients set goals together with her, and work proceeds at a steady, goal-oriented pace.
Andrea has worked in many settings with individuals and families over nearly three decades. She draws on that variety of experience when people bring complex problems like substance use, separation or control issues. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Hunter College School of Social Work and practice as an LCSW in New York.
In sessions she mixes techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness with motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods. That combination helps people notice unhelpful patterns, try small experiments, and build skills for clearer boundaries and communication. Andrea talks plainly about steps you can try between sessions.
Work with Andrea tends to be collaborative and task-oriented. She listens to what each person values, helps set realistic short-term goals, and checks progress along the way. If a different approach would suit better, she discusses alternatives and adjusts the plan.
How sessions work
How Andrea blends approaches and remote sessions
Andrea commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered methods. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Client-centered work emphasizes the person's own priorities and uses active listening and collaboration to set realistic goals.She also uses elements of mindfulness to help people notice patterns and motivational interviewing to support change when ambivalence is present. Mindfulness practices can help with stress and craving management. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to try new behaviors around relationships, substance use, or habits.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Andrea helps clients choose methods based on their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. That process is collaborative and adjusted over time as goals shift.
