Every child is met with patience, understanding, and support tailored to their unique needs and goals.
Here To Help
Children are supported in a safe, welcoming environment where they can build confidence, strengthen emotional awareness, and develop healthier coping skills through engaging, relationship-based therapy.
Sessions are tailored to each child’s unique needs using approaches such as play therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and solution-focused strategies. Families also receive practical tools and guidance to help support progress outside of sessions.
With experience across both school-based and private practice settings, therapy is approached collaboratively to help children navigate emotional, behavioral, social, and academic challenges with confidence and support.
A Thoughtful, Child-Centered Approach To Therapy
Safe, engaging support designed for growth
Children deserve to feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for in therapy. Building strong relationships and meaningful connection is at the heart of every session, helping children feel comfortable showing up exactly as they are.
Andrea is passionate about creating an engaging, welcoming environment where children can build trust, express emotions openly, and develop confidence through connection-based care. Whether that means incorporating games, creative activities, music, or comfort items into sessions, each child is supported in a way that feels personal and encouraging to them.
With a warm and compassionate approach, therapy is tailored to help children feel understood while giving parents reassurance that their child is being cared for with patience, empathy, and intentional support.
Building trust through compassion, connection, and meaningful support.

The Heart Behind The Practice
"I am always impressed at how she genuinely knows my daughter, and also that my daughter is willing to open up to her. Her support through our family's divorce has been absolutely amazing. My daughter is coping very well and we will continue to see her through the transition."
- Grateful Dad, Lutz
"Andrea goes above and beyond for her clients and makes them feel special and loved."
"Andrea is a warm, engaging and insightful counselor. Her suggestions changed the way I managed my child's anxiety, and as a result we have seen a much better response at home. My 7 year old son looks forward to seeing her and we are relieved at the changes."
- Happy Parent, Land O'Lakes
"We are beyond grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone!"
I live at home with my husband and my 13 year old daughter. In my free time I enjoy running, reading, shopping, and holidays. I am a fan of fancy coffee, love to laugh, and am creative at heart. I have Christian values, I love people well, and have been told often that I am uniquely intuitive.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a focus on children/parents and have had 16 years of counseling experience, as well as previous background in community mental health and substance abuse prevention. I also have taught professional development on various topics including behavior planning, mental health, and parent collaboration. I currently serve on the Board of Directors for Northside Baycare Behavioral Health Center in Tampa.
In my time as a school counselor, I also served as a member of the Pasco County Schools counselor leadership team. I have facilitated approximately 2,500+ meetings for Student Services teams during that time, and have expertise in developing 504 plans, IEPs, and available supports.
