About Andrea

Andrea Graziano brings a cognitive behavioral framework to her work, blending practical skill-building with a warm, client-guided approach.

Background and approach

Andrea is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia, and she uses CBT along with mindfulness and client-centered techniques to help people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, mood instability, relationship and family difficulties, grief, anger, and self-esteem concerns.

With 15 years of professional experience, Andrea has worked in both outpatient and residential settings and has provided case management as part of comprehensive care. Her practice emphasizes listening and partnership; she follows the client’s lead while offering tools and strategies intended to support clearer thinking, emotional regulation, and healthier interpersonal patterns.

Andrea aims to encourage and empower clients to make choices aligned with their goals. Andrea maintains a weekday appointment schedule and does not accept clients who are physically located outside New York or Virginia due to licensing requirements.

She does not take part in legal proceedings such as compensation or disability cases, and she invites prospective clients to reach out when they are ready to begin the process.

Practical therapy techniques for online care

Andrea blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy into a collaborative online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, providing step-by-step strategies to address anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and acceptance skills that can help with emotional regulation, reducing reactivity, and coping with grief or anger.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Andrea works together with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She emphasizes following the client's lead while introducing techniques that fit the person's daily life and pacing the work according to individual comfort.

Online formats available include video sessions, phone appointments, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work or family obligations and allow clients to engage in therapy in ways that suit them best.
