Roger Andrews

Roger Andrews is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Virginia with 13 years of experience. He helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, or life changes. He also supports people dealing with addiction, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and career questions.

He uses a mix of client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy. That means conversations start with the person's own goals and priorities. Then practical tools are added to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Sessions focus on clear steps and steady progress. He talks through problems, helps set realistic goals, and practices skills you can use between meetings. He aims to be compassionate and nonjudgmental while treating each person with dignity and respect.

Roger collaborates on a treatment plan tailored to each person's situation. The plan can include coping techniques for stress, relapse prevention strategies for addiction, mood management for bipolar disorder, or problem-solving for relationship strain.

He has worked in clinical settings with people facing trauma and serious mental health challenges. That background informs a practical approach that balances listening with concrete change. If you want straightforward help for career stress, mood concerns, or coping with change, he offers a steady, goal-oriented style.

How his approaches fit into online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and priorities, offering attentive listening and collaborative planning to help someone feel heard and understood. This approach is often helpful for people working through grief, relationship strain, or broader life adjustments.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with mood swings or addictive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is often a gradual process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match the person's needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make sessions easier to fit into a busy life, cutting down travel time and helping people schedule appointments around work or family responsibilities. It also allows for shorter check-ins when that suits the client's routine and can reduce the need for camera use if that helps someone focus on the work.
