Andrea Douglas, LPC

Andrea Douglas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alabama. She brings 13 years of counseling experience and a practical, down-to-earth style. She aims to help people regain focus and move forward when life feels stuck.

Andrea centers sessions on the person's needs rather than one fixed method. She often uses client-centered approaches, cognitive behavioral techniques, solution-focused strategies, and elements of the Gottman Method. The work is described plainly: identify unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and notice what works.

Her practice addresses stress, anxiety, depression, and the everyday pressures of parenting and career. Relationship concerns, communication problems, infidelity, and commitment issues are also part of her focus. Andrea helps people navigate family problems, blended family dynamics, and the emotional fallout of separation or divorce.

Andrea also supports people experiencing low self-esteem, emptiness, or life-purpose questions. She offers guidance around anger, control issues, body image, and coping with life changes. Compassion fatigue and coaching-style conversations are included when helpful.

She works with people from varied cultural backgrounds and accepts international clients. Language of service is English. To begin, prospective clients complete an online matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How Andrea’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s experience first. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s lead to build goals that matter. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses simple experiments and small changes to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress that interfere with daily life.

The Gottman Method offers practical tools for improving communication and managing conflict in relationships. It uses structured exercises that can clarify recurring patterns and support better interactions between partners.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions practical and relevant.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Together, therapist and client can adapt session length and focus to match everyday life and goals.
