About Andrea Kelley

Andrea Kelley is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Massachusetts who holds a Master in Social Work from Boston University and a Master in Public Health. She completed her undergraduate studies in the Study of Women and Gender at Smith College and brings eight years of professional experience since earning her master's degrees. While in graduate school she worked with youth and families involved with the state's welfare and mental health program, a background that informs her public health perspective on individual and community influences on wellbeing.

Andrea draws on multiple therapeutic approaches with a particular emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a practical method that explores how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and identifies ways to shift patterns that are no longer helpful. She considers both the personal and societal contexts that shape a person's experience and tailors interventions to each individual's circumstances. Andrea places strong importance on the relationship between therapist and client and encourages open discussion if the match does not feel right so that other options can be explored. She aims to collaborate with clients to set achievable goals and support meaningful progress over time.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Andrea integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into online sessions to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns - a practical approach often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related concerns. Motivational Interviewing is another tool she uses to support people who are contemplating change; it focuses on building motivation and clarifying personal goals in a collaborative, nonjudgmental way. Solution-Focused Therapy complements these methods by concentrating on strengths and achievable steps forward, helping clients build momentum through small, concrete changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Andrea works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time and invites clients to offer feedback about what is and is not working.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier for people to connect with licensed professionals from different locations and to find formats that suit their schedules and communication styles.
