Andrew Penn

My name is Andrew Penn — a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor in Florida. I specialize in working with men and LGBTQ+ clients navigating issues like depression, trauma, and addiction, helping them live with more authenticity, resilience, and self-compassion.

Although these are my areas of focus, I welcome and serve individuals from all populations, backgrounds, and identities. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, and nonjudgmental space for anyone seeking growth, healing, or deeper self-understanding.

You might be feeling lost, burnt out, or disconnected from who you are. Maybe you’ve tried to make changes but keep getting pulled back by stress, self-doubt, or habits that no longer serve you. I’m here to meet you where you are — with empathy, curiosity, and respect — and help you move toward the life you want.

My goal is provide a safe and supportive environment for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients reframe their thoughts and develop more positive thinking patterns. Additionally, I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to assist clients with PTSD and other trauma-related issues. These evidence-based therapies have been shown to be effective in helping clients achieve their therapeutic goals.

I use a collaborative, evidence-based approach that integrates:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns
• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) – to process trauma safely and effectively
• Motivational Interviewing – to strengthen motivation and align actions with values
• A trauma-informed, strengths-based perspective – so you can move at your own pace toward meaningful change
