About Andrew
Andrew Bradley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Maine with 15 years of professional experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, self-esteem, and depression. He also addresses related concerns such as attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and loneliness.
Andrew views clients as experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. In sessions he listens for what matters most and helps people break problems into manageable steps. He aims to make difficult feelings easier to understand and respond to, rather than overwhelming or mysterious.
His work often focuses on practical skills alongside reflection. That can mean learning ways to manage anxiety and panic symptoms, practicing clearer communication, or noticing patterns connected to guilt and shame. He helps people consider small changes that can reduce tension and improve mood.
Over his career he has supported people facing addiction and anger as well as chronic stress and depression. He pays attention to life circumstances like caregiving strain or separation that often interact with mental health. Sessions tend to emphasize straightforward problem solving and emotional awareness.
Andrew invites people who are ready to try talking things through to take one step at a time. To begin, the usual process is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. This lets him and the client set practical goals and decide the next steps.
How evidence-based approaches are used online
Andrew works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and understanding. One common approach is teaching practical tools to manage anxiety and panic symptoms, such as breathing and grounding strategies, which can reduce intense moments and help people feel more in control. Another approach emphasizes recognizing and changing unhelpful patterns that keep guilt and shame active, helping people notice thoughts and behaviors that reinforce those feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying a method, checking how it feels, and adjusting the plan together as progress is reviewed.
The practical benefits of online sessions can include easier scheduling and fitting therapy into a busy week. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, avoid travel, or use a session time during a break from work. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available online options before booking so you know how sessions will be held.
