Andrea Russell

Whether you are a parent who wants to support their child or an individual choosing to look for something more, deciding to seek outside guidance and support takes courage. It can feel scary taking that first step because you don't know who you or your child is going to see or what the experience will be like. As a parent, I have had to navigate the challenges of finding the right resources for my children. I understand how difficult it is to find someone who understands and listens without judgement while being supported to grow and overcome challenges.

I received my Master's Degree in Social Work at Washburn University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Maryland. I have the following certificates and training:

Trauma Focused CBT Training

Early Childhood Mental Health Certification

Strengthening Families Program Training

Chicago Parent Program Training

Trauma Informed Certification

Conscious Discipline Training

Circle of Security Training

I strive to be authentic, honest, and create a space that feels safe to allow natural progression and growth to occur. The parent/guardian is the expert of their child and you know yourself better than I ever could.
