Andrea has been crucial to my healing journey since a pretty bad break up and currently during some tough times. I always feel much lighter at the end of our sessions because she really hears me out to get to the core of the issues. Couldn’t be any happier that she’s my therapist!

Andrea is the best. It really helps to bounce things off her and get out of my own head. Her ability to help me see things from different perspectives has been vital over this last year.

Hi there! I am so happy you came across my BetterHelp site and are taking steps to take care of your mental health. I am very passionate about providing mental health services and breaking the stigma around taking care of mental health needs. I think it is vital in the therapeutic process to feel comfortable with your therapist and I wanted to share about myself so you can see if I might be a good fit for you. My name is Andrea Kay and I have my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler. I have been a counselor in Texas since 2016 and have worked in a variety of settings and with many different populations. I've counseled in crisis centers working with people in their lowest battles of depression, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. I've counseled kids, teens and families at a community counseling center to work on improving communication, setting healthy boundaries and creating healthy home environments. I've counseled adults through a range of life experiences from general anxiety, transitions, loss, depression and low self-esteem and I also enjoy working with anyone looking to focus on general self growth regardless of having a specific area of concern.

My approach is to listen and understand your experiences and collaborate with you to set goals and work toward a more desirable situation. There are a lot of things that we can not control in our lives which is important to acknowledge, and there are also things we can control like our approach, outlook and perspective on our situations. Using an eclectic approach combining cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, narrative therapy and person centered techniques we will work together toward your goals and overall improvement in your mental health.

I hope to have the pleasure of meeting you and be well!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

In the short amount of time I’ve been working with Andrea, I feel seen, I feel heard, I feel like everything I tell her is important and that she genuinely cares about getting to the root of things. Trying to pick up the pieces after a very challenging year has not been easy, but she has made it easier to work through things with practical and useful tools and just letting me talk through things.

She has helped me out so much and even as new things come to light she works on that while making sure past issues/problems are getting better. She's been incredibly patient and accommodating.

She has been really supportive and patient with helping me work towards my goals and shift my mindset to align more with what I want. Although I am resistant subconsciously (my thought) she does a good job of simplifying topics and providing new ways to look at things. Also the help with mindfulness has been amazing even if I am just beginning :)

I am 30 years old and started therapy at 15. I’ve been in various types of counseling off and on for half of my life. Andrea is hands down the best therapist I have ever had. Nonjudgmental, attentive, and fully accepting. There are no words to express my relief of being able to find someone I trust again.
