About Andrea
I am Andrea Ryan, a licensed professional counselor with a master's level education in the state of Texas. In addition to my professional degree, I have studied and become certified in Traumatic Stress Studies with The Trauma Center at JRI through Bessel Van der Kolk. I have worked both in a behavioral hospital with inpatient and outpatient clients, and as an independent counselor in private practice for years. If it is a part of the human experience in mental health, I have most likely addressed it. I offer you an empathic, supportive, in-the-moment, and non-judgmental style of therapy to help with depression, anxiety, stress management, traumatic experiences, mood swings, women's concerns, interpersonal relationship issues, personal or professional growth, as well as grief and loss. I have vast experience in assisting with the development of the necessary coping skills, relaxation techniques, yoga/body integration, and self-regulation techniques to positively improve your relationships at home and work. I help you utilize your strengths and develop new skills to integrate the struggles you are experiencing. I bring scientifically supported techniques to bear on your individual situation to discover ways to work through any challenge you meet. I recognize that a person is not a collection of problems to be addressed, but rather a whole, complex, and beautiful individual expression of life. Therefore, I prefer to work collaboratively with your whole self. Feel free to express yourself in a safe, confidential session with me. I look forward to walking this path with you. I see myself as a fellow traveler alongside you on your life journey. I believe that all experiences make us who we are; and that the point is the journey not the destination. As J. R. R. Tolkien noted, "Not all those who wander are lost." I am honored in your decision to allow me to assist you as you grow and develop through the challenges that prompted you to seek therapy.
