About Andrea

Andrea Levitan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience practicing in Kansas and Missouri. She works with relationship concerns, parenting and family stress, depression, anxiety, grief, intimacy issues, self-esteem, career stress, and codependency. Andrea helps people who keep putting others first and who want clearer boundaries and steadier emotional footing.

She explains emotional patterns plainly and helps clients notice how old habits show up now. Sessions focus on identifying stuck emotions, learning new ways to respond, and building practical coping skills. Andrea uses conversational, task-focused work rather than long lectures or vague advice.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and on emotionally-focused and Imago relationship ideas to look at connection and communication. She also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward it. Those methods are used together to address relationships and individual concerns alike.

Andrea trained at Avila University, earning a master’s degree in counseling psychology, and she holds LPC licensure in Kansas and Missouri. She also completed a personal trainer certification to integrate movement and lifestyle habits into mental health work when clients want that option.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation, concrete tools to try between sessions, and a focus on learning how to set limits and care for oneself without unnecessary guilt. Before booking, confirm the current session formats offered.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Andrea often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. EFT emphasizes patterns in close relationships and helps people notice and change interaction cycles that fuel distance or conflict.

She treats choice of approach as a collaborative decision. The therapist and client will review goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what fits the client’s needs and preferences. That means experimenting with skills in-session and planning homework that fits the client’s daily life.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit appointments around work and family, have shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Online work can include conversational CBT exercises, emotion-focused role work adapted for video, and mindfulness or motivational interviewing that translates well to a virtual setting. The therapist will help choose ways of working that fit each person’s schedule and goals.
