About Andrea
Andrea Graziano is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience. She practices in New York and previously worked in outpatient and residential settings. Andrea focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, and bipolar mood challenges.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Andrea listens first and follows each person's lead. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people identify patterns and try small changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Andrea trained at Medaille College and began her counseling career in 2008. Her background includes case management and work in residential programs, which shaped her practical approach to problem solving. She emphasizes encouragement and empowerment over directive advice.
Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Andrea is licensed in New York and in the Commonwealth of Virginia; she is only able to work with people who are physically located in those jurisdictions during sessions. She does not participate in legal cases, such as compensation or disability proceedings.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. Andrea aims to be a calm, consistent presence while people work toward clearer coping and better day-to-day functioning.

Therapeutic approaches that work well online
Andrea uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's lead so conversations stay relevant to what matters most. It helps when someone needs a calm space to talk and be heard.Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is practical for addressing anxiety, depression, anger, and stress by trying specific coping skills and tracking what works.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Andrea will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day routine. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as progress or needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversations and working through exercises together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it simple to send short updates, try quick coping strategies, or fit support into a busy day. These options give flexibility to work on anger, stress, and mood concerns without changing a daily schedule.
