About Andra
Andra Blackheart is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, and life transitions. She also supports people dealing with anxiety, stress, mood changes, ADHD, and questions around identity and connection.
Her approach aims to be direct and practical. She helps people clarify what matters to them after a big change or a painful event. She works with people who struggle to connect to themselves, and with those who want better connection with friends, community, or romantic partners.
Andra pays attention to neurodivergent experiences. That includes people with autism or related presentations who want strategies that fit how they think and live. She offers evaluations that are neurodivergent-affirming and provides coaching alongside therapy when that suits a person’s goals.
In sessions she pulls from several methods to match a person's needs. Techniques include client-centered conversation, cognitive behavioral ideas, motivational interviewing, mindfulness practices, and existential questions about meaning and values. The work often focuses on practical skills, clearer communication, and using supports available to the person.
People who come for help can expect a mix of coaching and therapy aimed at building usable strategies. Andra emphasizes strengthening coping skills, improving communication, and supporting people as they make concrete changes in daily life.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. In practice this means sessions spend time on where you are now and what you want to change, with the therapist reflecting and clarifying your concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and provides concrete tools to test and change patterns that cause distress. Mindfulness practices teach short exercises for noticing stress and returning attention to practical steps to feel steadier.Finding the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try first, and adjust those choices based on goals and what feels useful. That means you and the therapist decide together whether to emphasize skill practice, values and meaning work, or focused behavior change.

Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and session length so appointments can be shaped around work, family, and daily routines.
