About Andrew

Andrew Fort is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with six years of experience in clinical settings. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, family concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. He also focuses on communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, men's issues, panic, and social anxiety.

Andrew uses straightforward conversation and goal-focused work. He mixes Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral techniques. Sessions aim to clarify feelings, notice patterns, and try small changes that can ease day-to-day struggles.

He welcomes people who wish to include their Christian faith in counseling. That option is available for clients who want a Biblical, Christ-centered perspective as part of their sessions. The therapist maintains professional boundaries while integrating spiritual themes when requested.

In practice he emphasizes clear communication and practical steps. That can mean working on how to speak about needs, practicing new responses to stress, or addressing shame and guilt through structured conversation. Progress is tracked through short-term goals and regular check-ins.

Clients can expect open discussion about what matters most to them. Andrew aims to help people name emotions, understand recurring patterns, and choose new ways of relating to themselves and others.

How Andrew integrates EFT and practical methods online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and name core emotions and the interaction patterns they create. It is often used when emotions are hard to put into words or when recurring patterns cause conflict or distance.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's experience and perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is heard, and follows the client's lead to build understanding and self-direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that maintain problems and trying small, testable changes. CBT techniques can be useful for anxiety, panic, and social fears through practical exercises and structured work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrew will discuss goals and preferences in the first sessions and collaborate on which methods to use. The plan can shift over time based on what the client finds most helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking. The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule, making shorter check-ins possible, and avoiding travel time. These conveniences can make it easier to keep regular sessions and practice skills between meetings.
