About Andrea
Andrea Mckee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon with 12 years of experience in mental health care. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, family-related concerns, trauma and depression. Andrea also supports people dealing with self-esteem and difficult life transitions.
She often helps individuals who grew up with difficult family patterns and now see those roles and expectations showing up in their adult lives. She talks through how early relationships influence current reactions, boundaries, and communication. Sessions focus on understanding these patterns and developing clearer ways to respond in daily life.
Her background includes work across a broad range of concerns such as adoption and foster care histories, aging and geriatric issues, mood disorders, panic, post-traumatic stress, and challenges with isolation or social anxiety. Andrea draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and improve coping skills.
Practical goals in sessions include improving communication, reducing anxiety and panic, managing depressive episodes, and addressing self-harm urges when they arise. She also supports women and young adults navigating transitions and relationship stress. Work may include talking through past family dynamics, practicing new communication approaches, and building routines that reduce day-to-day distress.
Andrea offers services in English and practices in Oregon. She approaches each case with respect and sensitivity, and she will discuss a plan that fits a person’s circumstances during the first conversations.
How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions
Andrea works with established, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and on strengthening coping skills. Cognitive approaches involve identifying thought patterns that increase anxiety or depression and trying alternative, more balanced thoughts to reduce distress. Behavioral techniques focus on practical actions such as graded exposure for panic or social anxiety and building routines to improve mood and daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrea collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She will review options together and adjust the plan as progress is made or circumstances change.
The specifics of session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy schedules, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue with care when life changes make in-person visits harder, while the therapist and client focus on concrete skills and problem solving.
