Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I have over twenty years of clinical experience working with client’s experiencing intimate relationship difficulties, addiction, difficulty managing anger, coping with grief and loss, mental health challenges like Bipolar Disorder, Depression, and PTSD.. I also have almost eight years of working with veterans attempting to adjust to civilian life after separation from the military, young people finding healthy ways to make the transition to early adulthood.
My work with client’s is driven by the belief that all of us have the capacity for making change. This change comes from the courage and willingness to examine our lives and begin to develop a plan to make things better. We are all worthy of seeking better things in our lives.
I approach my work with a positive attitude, encouraging communication,stressing personal responsibility, and never give up attitude. I believe life is for the living. It’s up to each one of us to unlock our [potential and actively seek to obtain our goals, fill our bucket lists, have no regrets !
I am located in the USA and in the Eastern Standard Time Zone. I work here part time with a traditional Monday-to-Friday work week. I do find myself online at some point every day typically. I’m most frequently available from 5pm-800pm, very early many mornings by 4am for a couple of hours which makes working with international client’s very manageable, and some weekend hours too. I hope that these times work.
Most client’s enjoy a combination of message based communications that are not in real time with regular weekly live sessions bu video (not Skype) or cell. There is even a “live chat” function where we can write to each other on a split screen in real time. We can decide what works best for you.
I try extremely hard to get back to client’s within the same day a message is received. There are times when I’m in daily contact, often in bunches of messages, with client’s as needed. There are times that we may be in weekly contact. We can establish this rhythm of contact together.
A credo that I go by:
If you keep on doing what you’ve always done you will keep on being what you’ve always been. Nothing changes unless YOU make the change.
I try to bring the following quote from Martin Luther King, Jr. into my work as best I can:
“We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there “is” such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.â€
Another favorite thought of mine comes from a movie and states “Life is too short not to have a cookie when you want one”
Best,
Andy

Andrew Wurth brings 31 years of clinical experience to his work with individuals and families facing relationship difficulties, addiction, anger-management challenges, grief and loss, and mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder, depression, and PTSD. He has nearly eight years of focused work with veterans adjusting to civilian life and with young people navigating the transition to early adulthood.
He believes that people possess the capacity to change when they undertake the often-difficult work of examining their lives and building a plan to improve them. His therapeutic approach is grounded in a positive outlook, clear communication, an emphasis on personal responsibility, and a persistent, never-give-up attitude. He encourages clients to pursue their goals and live with fewer regrets.
Andrew holds a Master of Arts degree and is licensed as a clinical social worker in both Massachusetts and New Hampshire. He practices from Massachusetts and operates on Eastern Standard Time. He works part time within a traditional Monday-to-Friday framework but is typically online each day. He is most often available from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm, and many mornings he is available very early starting around 4:00 am for a couple of hours – a schedule that also accommodates international clients – with some weekend availability as well.
Many clients use a mix of message-based communication that is not in real time along with regular weekly live sessions by video (not Skype) or by cell phone. There is also a live chat option for split-screen, real-time writing if that is preferred. Andrew aims to respond to messages within the same day when possible and remains flexible about the rhythm of contact, whether that is frequent messaging during busy periods or weekly check-ins. He works collaboratively with each person to establish the pattern of contact that fits their needs.
Andrew often summarizes his view with a simple credo: if someone keeps doing what they have always done, they will stay what they have always been – change requires intentional action. He also draws inspiration from Martin Luther King Jr.: “We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there is such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.” He also appreciates a lighter reminder that “life is too short not to have a cookie when you want one.”
