About Andrea
Andrea LeBeau is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) in Kansas who helps with family and parenting concerns as well as stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She brings seven years of hands-on experience working in child welfare and family-focused settings. Andrea aims to build a respectful, direct relationship and offers practical support for people facing hard moments.
Her background includes a social work degree from the University of Kansas and work on the National Suicide Hotline, where she used crisis counseling skills.
Background and approach
She has spent most of her career helping keep families connected through family-based and individual therapy. Andrea currently supervises therapists who support families involved in foster care. Andrea uses a client-centered style that centers the person’s own knowledge about their life.
She combines that approach with evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques. She is empathetic but also straightforward and offers positive feedback when it helps. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps.
That might include identifying thoughts that keep someone stuck, practicing new ways to handle stress, or talking through family patterns that affect daily life. She adapts methods to match each person’s needs. Andrea offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules.
Sessions are organized through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. She communicates in English and works with Kansas-based clients.
Approaches that guide online family and parenting work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the client’s own insights. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort feelings and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Decisions about methods are collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to keep contact between meetings when helpful. The flexibility supports consistent check-ins and practical follow-through on goals.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
