About Andromeda

Andromeda Moodie is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what feels most urgent. Her style is steady and practical, aimed at helping people make small, useful changes that ease daily life.

She uses a blend of therapy methods to match each person's needs. That can mean working on thoughts and behaviors that keep someone stuck, retelling painful stories to reduce their hold, or using trauma-focused techniques when past harm affects today.

Background and approach

She draws on Internal Family Systems ideas when it helps clients understand different parts of themselves. Her work often addresses attachment, blended family dynamics, communication problems, and issues such as guilt, shame, or isolation. She also supports people coping with divorce, infidelity, immigration stress, and family-of-origin wounds.

Sessions aim to untangle the immediate problem and build clearer ways to move forward. Andromeda brings 15 years of experience to her practice in Florida and holds the credential Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, FL LMFT MT4375. She offers several formats for meeting, including video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels.

Therapy begins with a conversation about goals and what feels most workable. She helps clients choose approaches that fit their situation and then adjusts as needs change.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that feed worry or low mood. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and depression and often involves clear steps and short-term goals.

Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories by retelling experiences in a different way. This approach can lessen shame, blame, and overwhelming meaning tied to past events. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on safety, processing traumatic memories at a pace the client can handle, and building coping skills for triggers and symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to goals, consider what has or has not helped before, and then recommend methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can shift as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to continue work during transitions. They also allow therapists to use worksheets, brief exercises, and conversational check-ins in ways that match a client's communication style and daily life.

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.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
