Andrea Deases, LPC

Andrea Deases is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler. She brings hands-on experience working in a range of clinical settings across Texas, including crisis centers where she supported people facing severe episodes of depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Andrea has also worked with children, teens, and families in community counseling settings to strengthen communication, establish healthy boundaries, and foster more stable home environments.

Her work with adults spans general anxiety, life transitions, grief, low self-esteem, and depression, and she welcomes those pursuing personal growth even when they do not have a specific diagnosis. Andrea emphasizes listening first - seeking to understand each person’s story before collaboratively setting clear, achievable goals. She uses an eclectic, client-centered approach that blends cognitive behavioral strategies, solution-focused techniques, narrative work, and person-centered principles to help clients shift perspective, develop coping skills, and move toward meaningful change.

Andrea frames therapy as a partnership that honors what a person can and cannot control, while identifying practical ways to influence mood, behavior, and relationships. Her background across crisis, family, and outpatient settings informs a versatile style aimed at meeting clients where they are.
