About Andrea

Andrea Greenberg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Connecticut with 31 years of experience. She focuses on adults in midlife who are facing major life changes and who want firmer emotional footing. Her work often involves stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, and issues with self-esteem and intimacy.

Andrea commonly sees people who are navigating the long-term effects of childhood trauma or complex post-traumatic stress. She helps clients notice how old patterns and triggers show up in relationships, work, and day-to-day choices. Sessions center on practical steps that reduce distress and change recurring behaviors.

Her approach combines direct conversation with client-centered listening. She uses therapies that pay attention to attachment patterns and mindful awareness while also including techniques developed for trauma processing. Andrea emphasizes accountability and concrete coping strategies her clients can use between sessions.

She draws from methods such as attachment-based work, EMDR for trauma processing, the Gottman Method for relationship issues, and mindfulness practices to help regulate emotion. The goal is to move past repeated patterns and build steadier ways of responding to stress and change.

Andrea often works with people who want clear, goal-focused therapy that still allows for emotional processing. She asks clients to be active participants in their care and to try tools outside sessions. Getting started begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.

BHow sessions work

How Andrea’s approaches can work online

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships. It looks at how earlier connections shape present reactions and helps people try different ways of relating. This can be useful for anxiety, intimacy issues, and repeated relational patterns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that helps process strong memories and reduce their intensity. It is often used when trauma or abuse continue to produce emotional and bodily reactions in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be collaborative. The therapist and client discuss goals, past treatment, and preferences and then pick methods that fit those needs. Plans are adjusted as work proceeds so the approach aligns with what is actually helping.

Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break or sessions that don’t require travel. It also allows continued work when schedules or location make in-person visits difficult. The focus remains on practical skills, trauma processing when appropriate, and matching methods to daily life demands.
