(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
Hi there! My name is Andrea Gonzalez, and I am an anxiety therapist specializing in working with women struggling with anxiety, perfectionism and stress.
Welcome! I commend you for taking the first step to beginning therapy. My passion is working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt and difficulties in relationships. In my practice, I help you tune into your inner wisdom (while suggesting some helpful coping skills along the way) so that you can thrive and be your best self. I tailor my sessions to every individual client, giving you as much space as is needed to process and "vent" while providing the necessary structure to develop goals and strategies to address your concerns. My style in session is warm and empathic. As an eclectic therapist, I draw from various approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to suit your needs best. I provide therapy fluently in both English and Spanish. My goal is to make therapy accessible, and so I do accept several insurance carriers (Aetna, Optum, Cigna, Anthem, UnitedHealthcare and others) as well as provide sliding scale slots. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
