About Andrea
Andrea Levitan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience based in Kansas. She works with people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, intimacy issues, and self-esteem concerns. Andrea also addresses career questions and a range of related struggles such as attachment and body image issues.
Andrea uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness strategies. She aims to help people name and sit with hard emotions so patterns that keep causing pain can change. Sessions move at a steady pace and focus on practical steps as well as emotional understanding.
Her background includes a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Avila University and licensure to practice in Kansas and Missouri. She also holds a personal trainer certification and integrates attention to movement and lifestyle where it fits the work.
Andrea describes herself as a listener who helps people uncover strengths and build new coping skills. She often draws on Imago Relationship Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to address communication, commitment, and codependency concerns. That practical mix is aimed at helping people get clearer about what they want and how to take steps toward it.
People interested in working on family of origin issues, divorce and separation, eating and food-related concerns, or fatherhood issues will find these topics within her scope of practice. Andrea encourages prospective clients to consider how emotion and behavior interact when deciding on next steps.
How Andrea blends EFT, CBT and mindfulness for remote sessions
Andrea commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and work with strong emotions that keep affecting relationships and self-view. EFT is about noticing feelings in the moment and changing the patterns that follow, which can help with intimacy and attachment concerns.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety or depression, and uses Mindfulness Therapy to build the skill of noticing experience without immediate reaction. Those approaches can help with stress, low mood, and repetitive negative thinking.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies together and adjusting based on what helps the client make progress.
