About Andrea

Andrea Douglas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama. She brings 13 years of counseling experience and focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. Andrea aims to help clients regain a sense of control and move forward when life feels overwhelming.

She uses an individualized approach rather than a single method. That means she listens to each person's needs and blends methods that fit the situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy commonly guide her sessions, along with solution-focused ideas and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship concerns arise.

In a session Andrea helps people identify patterns that increase worry or low mood. She works on practical steps clients can try between meetings, such as changing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. The focus is often on clear, doable goals that make daily life easier.

Andrea has experience addressing relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, career stress, burnout and compassion fatigue. She also supports people coping with life changes, low self-esteem, anger, grief around separation, and questions about purpose and connection.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She aims to make therapy feel personal and actionable. Prospective clients who want to learn practical skills and steady emotional support may find her approach helpful.

How Andrea’s approaches can work online

Andrea often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when working with stress and anxiety. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce worry and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance where the client’s experience guides the conversation and pace.

She also draws on Solution-Focused techniques to set clear, short-term goals and on elements of the Gottman Method when addressing relationship patterns. These methods help people make concrete shifts in how they relate and communicate with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Andrea collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts pacing and tools so therapy matches what a person is trying to achieve.
