Andrea Levitan, LPC

Andrea Levitan is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing relationship strain, intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, stress, and grief. She also supports clients working on self-esteem, career concerns, and family-of-origin problems. Her approach aims to help people notice what’s holding them back and take practical steps forward.

Andrea keeps sessions straightforward and goal-focused. She listens closely and helps clients name emotions and patterns. She uses practical coping skills and encourages experiments people can try between sessions. Her style blends encouragement with structure so clients can make steady progress.

Andrea draws on about 18 years of clinical experience and a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Avila University in Kansas City, Missouri. She is licensed as an LPC in Kansas and Missouri and integrates knowledge from different approaches to suit each person’s needs.

She often brings mindfulness practices, cognitive techniques, and relationship-focused work into sessions. Andrea also considers lifestyle factors such as movement and exercise when relevant, as she has a personal trainer certification and believes body and mind influence each other.

People who choose to work with her can expect a collaborative plan, clear goals, and practical steps to try between meetings. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.

How these approaches shape online work

Andrea often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and behavior patterns that keep problems going and then test small changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and specific relationship habits.

She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help partners and individuals identify and name their core emotions and attachment needs. EFT is aimed at improving connection and reducing repeating cycles that cause distance or conflict.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Andrea will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and the problem at hand. She typically blends techniques rather than using one method alone, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm which online session options are currently offered before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a break at lunch or after work. Licensed professionals tailor session pacing and homework to suit the online setting and each person's daily life.
