About Andree
Andree McColl-Ravanelli is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with seven years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ related concerns, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Andree frames clients as the experts of their own stories and works collaboratively to address what feels most pressing.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people identify strengths that support change. Sessions involve practical problem solving and attention to everyday pressures like work, money, and relationships. She guides people through concrete steps rather than relying on jargon.
Andree also addresses issues that often sit alongside core concerns, such as caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and midlife questions. She will talk through how these stressors affect day-to-day life and suggest manageable adjustments. Expect clear options rather than abstract theories.
When trauma or past abuse is involved, she attends to current symptoms and coping so daily functioning improves. For people with attention challenges, she focuses on strategies to improve motivation and organization in realistic ways. The aim is better routines and clearer priorities.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Therapy is billed through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time; fees vary by location.

BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Andree frames work around evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skills and behavior change. One common strand is skills-based work that teaches concrete tools for managing anxiety and stress, such as short exercises to reduce overwhelm and steps to break large tasks into smaller actions. This kind of work helps when day-to-day functioning is interrupted by worry or low motivation.Another frequent element is trauma-informed support that focuses on current symptoms and coping strategies. This looks at what helps someone feel steadier from one day to the next and builds routines and responses that reduce reactivity. Those techniques aim to improve sleep, concentration, and mood through straightforward adjustments.
Deciding which approaches to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust based on the client’s needs and goals. Clients and the therapist work together to find what fits their life and preferences rather than sticking rigidly to a single method.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering alternatives for people who prefer not to use video. These practical benefits can help therapy work around work, caregiving, and other daily responsibilities.
