Andrea Merback

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a master’s and bachelor’s in social work. I work with adult individuals, families, and couples. I primarily use person centered therapy, and have been trained in various evidenced-based treatments to effectively help you cope with daily life stressors, trauma, and unexpected life changes. I have nine years of experience working in the mental health field, in private practice for three years.

I specialize in somatic and mindfulness-based therapies, while also using cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based approaches. I believe every client’s story is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet each person’s individual needs.

I primarily use person centered approach, as well as guide clients using mindfulness-based and somatic techniques. I also believe education is power, I incorporate psychoeducation about the stress response and how the nervous system works. Whole person therapy, and evidence-based strategies are the focus, to help clients calm and regulate their nervous system, so they feel safe, informed, and in control.

In your first session, you can expect a warm, supportive, and judgment-free, safe environment. We’ll take time to get to know each other, explore your goals, and identify immediate stressors. Together, we’ll set achievable steps so you leave with a sense of clarity and a plan for moving forward.
