Andrea Bound

I’m a down-to-earth therapist who focuses on creating a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself—no pressure, no judgment. I know starting therapy can feel intimidating, so I try to make it feel more like a real conversation than something overly clinical.

I work with clients dealing with anxiety, stress, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions. I also spend a lot of time helping people who feel stuck in people-pleasing patterns, overthinking, or putting everyone else’s needs before their own.

My goal is to help you better understand yourself, feel more in control of your emotions, and build confidence in the choices you make. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start—we can work through it together.

My approach is collaborative and practical. I’ll meet you where you are, and we’ll figure things out as a team. I use a mix of tools from CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed approaches, but I keep things flexible based on what works best for you.

I like to help clients connect the dots between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while also giving real-life strategies you can actually use outside of sessions. At the same time, we’ll explore past experiences when they’re relevant and impacting what’s going on now.

I’ll support you, but I’ll also gently challenge you when needed—because growth doesn’t happen by staying stuck. My goal is for you to leave sessions feeling understood, but also with something useful to take with you.

In our first session, we'll spend some time getting to know each other and talking about what brought you into therapy. You don't need to have everything figured out - I'll help guide the conversation. We'll also go over what you can expect from working together and start thinking about what you'd like to focus on moving forward.
