About Andrea
Andrea Tucker is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) licensed in Indiana with seven years of professional experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and problems related to addiction and LGBT concerns. Andrea also focuses on issues like codependency, communication problems, and low self-esteem.
Her approach is practical and goal-oriented. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Sessions focus on clear steps you can practice between meetings, such as coping strategies and communication skills.
Andrea aims to be direct and respectful in sessions. She listens to what matters to each person and adjusts the work to match their goals. Expect a mix of talk, skill-building, and homework that targets everyday situations.
People commonly bring anger, shame, or isolation into sessions. Andrea helps identify how those feelings show up and what patterns keep them happening. For someone who repeatedly puts others first or stays in relationships that drain them, she can work on boundary setting, assertive communication, and self-regard.
If you decide to try sessions, she guides the first steps and checks progress along the way. The focus is on practical change you can use in daily life, not on labels or judgments.
How sessions work
CBT-based work and online sessions
Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people spot patterns of thought that lead to stress or unhelpful behavior and then try out different responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, and problems with self-esteem or impulse control.The best fit of methods is figured out together. Andrea will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and what they want to change, then suggest ways of working that match those priorities. That collaborative decision is revisited as progress is made.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping appointments that might otherwise be missed. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm the current online options before booking. The focus is on making therapy actionable and manageable within everyday life, such as scheduling shorter check-ins around work or using tools that support between-session exercises.
