About Andrea
Andrea Bragdon is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults on depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life transitions. Andrea also notes experience with family of origin issues and with clients who have experienced emotional, sexual, or physical trauma or abuse.
She takes a straightforward, conversational approach in sessions. Andrea blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered methods, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. Conversations tend to focus on concrete steps, manageable skills, and noticing patterns that came from early family roles.
Andrea has worked with people facing career and entrepreneurial challenges, bipolar mood concerns, chronic illness and pain, and issues tied to body image, kink and alternative sexual cultures, and non-monogamous relationships. She also addresses separation and divorce, codependency, isolation, and questions about life purpose and midlife change.
Her background includes time living in both Maine and Florida, and her counseling practice reflects that range of experience. Sessions are conducted in English, and she accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The initial phase of work usually clarifies which patterns from childhood are still active and which practical steps to try next.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and practicing small, committed actions that fit those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and patterns that come from early family roles. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, collaborative conversation where the therapist follows the client's pace and priorities. This approach supports exploring relationship patterns and self-esteem without pressure.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills and ways to notice reactions as they happen. It is often used alongside ACT to reduce reactivity and to build steadier focus when dealing with stress or intrusive memories. Andrea draws on these methods to help people identify which approaches feel most useful for their situation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs and then suggest a mix of techniques. That decision is collaborative and can shift as work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. These practical benefits often help people keep consistent momentum while addressing family-of-origin patterns and life changes.
