About Andrew

Andrew Fort is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and family dynamics, depression, and self-esteem concerns. He blends practical therapy methods with a respectful, compassionate stance, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person's unique situation.

Background and approach

Andrew draws on six years of professional experience, including earlier internship and associate-level work, to support clients seeking clearer priorities, improved communication, and greater confidence. He works from an integrative perspective that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered, emotionally focused, and solution-focused techniques.

That mix allows him to address immediate coping skills like managing panic and social anxiety while also exploring deeper patterns related to guilt, control issues, forgiveness, loneliness, and life purpose. For clients who wish to incorporate faith into their work, Andrew can integrate a Biblical, Christ-centered perspective as part of a collaborative therapeutic process.

He aims to empower people to take practical steps toward a more fulfilling life while honoring individual values and goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Andrew integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into his online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms such as panic attacks, social anxiety, and persistent worry. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client's perspective guides the work and emotional understanding is prioritized.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in early sessions, adjusting methods over time so that treatment aligns with the client's needs and values. For some issues a more solution-focused emphasis may be added to build concrete strategies quickly, while other concerns might benefit from deeper emotionally focused exploration.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into everyday life, allowing clients to access a licensed professional from their home or other convenient locations while working toward practical goals.
