An LPC is a licensed professional with training and competency in methods that may include interpersonal, cognitive, cognitive-behavioral, behavioral, psychodynamic, and affective. LPCs may work with individuals, groups, couples, or families. They may provide services including assessments, career counseling, addiction counseling, or hypnotherapy. (Cf. TX Code B 681.31.)

An LMFT is also a licensed professional that may employ any of the therapeutic methods and activities mentioned above. LMFTs adopt a systems approach (Cf. TX Code
C 801.42), striving to understand and address problems in the familial and/or social context, rather than as internal to an individual client. Andrea received her temporary licenses from the state of TX in 2010 and her full licenses in 2012.

Internal Family Systems is an evidence-based model that views every person as a system of protective and wounded parts that can be unburdened from attachment injuries and traumas through relationship with an innermost self. Andrea completed Level 1 training from the IFS Institute in 2023, and is a member of the Formation for Formators IFS community.

​
Hypnosis is a therapeutic modality that builds upon the mind/body’s own innate ability to slip into relaxed, alert states (such as while driving). While in these relaxed states, we often have access to solutions outside of our habitual ways of thinking. Clients work together with their therapist to identify goals for hypnosis.  Andrea studied solution-oriented hypnosis with Bill O’Hanlon, a student of Milton Erickson, in 2015.

Philosophical Practice is the application of the methods and principles of philosophy to problems in human living: e.g., ethical dilemmas, crises of meaning, or discernment of purpose. Andrea has been an APPA-Certified Philosophical Practitioner since 2001 - see her listing on the website of the American Philosophical Practitioners Association.
