About Andrew
Andrew Oxman is a licensed mental health counselor with 26 years of clinical experience. He offers a steady, practical presence for people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, depression, parenting challenges, and family problems. He speaks plainly and listens closely to help clients make changes that matter to their day-to-day life.
His approach is collaborative and client-centered. He relies on deep listening, encouragement, and intuition to support people in finding their own solutions.
Background and approach
He often uses therapy assignments, writing, and role playing to reinforce progress outside sessions. Andrew integrates several therapeutic ideas in his work. He draws from attachment-based perspectives to look at relationship patterns.
He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and existential themes may appear when clients want to explore meaning and presence in their lives. He works with many issues related to family and parenting, and with related concerns such as communication problems, caregiver stress, blended family issues, fatherhood matters, and family of origin wounds.
He also helps people facing trauma and abuse, anger, compassion fatigue, career transitions, and forgiveness work. Andrew practices in Massachusetts and offers sessions in English. His professional credential is LMHC - licensed mental health counselor.
He does not provide treatment for addictions, sexual trauma, or eating disorders and notes those areas may be better addressed in person.
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Andrew often uses attachment-based ideas to examine how relationship patterns shape feelings and behavior, which can help when family or parenting patterns cause stress. He also applies cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and actions to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will discuss goals, preferences, and life circumstances with each person and suggest which methods to try. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time as needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging for flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to continue work during life transitions. Therapists and licensed professionals can use these options to maintain regular contact and to share assignments and resources between sessions.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
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.
